An engineered serum albumin-binding AAV9 capsid achieves improved liver transduction after intravenous delivery in mice.
Article in Gene therapy, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Recombinant adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors are frequently used to deliver DNA into cells and are currently the leading platform for therapeutic gene delivery in humans. Presently, there is a need for optimized AAV vectors with improved transduction efficiencies in target tissues. In these studies, an engineered albumin-binding consensus domain (ABDCon) peptide was incorporated into the AAV9 capsid via fusion to the N-terminus of the AAV9 VP2 capsid protein to generate a variant AAV9 capsid with albumin-binding properties. The variant capsid, called AAV9-ABDCon, formed viable genome-containing vector particles and exhibited binding to human serum albumin. The AAV9 capsid, on the other hand, was not found to bind to human serum albumin by the methods used in this study. In C57BL/6J mice, AAV9-ABDCon achieved significantly higher levels of liver transduction compared with AAV9 following intravenous administration. These findings show that incorporation of the ABDCon peptide into the capsid VP2 N-terminus may be a potential method to augment AAV-mediated liver-directed gene delivery.
