1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Gene delivery is a key component for the treatment of genetic hearing loss. To date, a myriad of adeno-associated virus (AAV) serotypes and surgical approaches have been employed to deliver transgenes to cochlear hair cells, but the efficacy of dual transduction remains unclear. Herein, we investigated cellular tropism of single injections of AAV serotype 1 (AAV1), AAV2, AAV8, AAV9, and Anc80L65, and quantitated dual-vector co-transduction rates following co-injection of AAV2 and AAV9 vectors in adult murine cochlea. We used the combined round window membrane and canal fenestration (RWM+CF) injection technique for vector delivery. Single AAV2 injections were most robust and transduced 96.7% ± 1.1% of inner hair cells (IHCs) and 83.9% ± 2.0% of outer hair cells (OHCs) throughout the cochlea without causing hearing impairment or hair cell loss. Dual AAV2 injection co-transduced 96.9% ± 1.7% of IHCs and 65.6% ± 8.95% of OHCs. Together, RWM+CF-injected single or dual AAV2 provides the highest auditory hair cell transduction efficiency of the AAV serotypes we studied. These findings broaden the application of cochlear gene therapy targeting hair cells.
