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

Adeno-associated virus 5 (AAV5)-human factor VIII-SQ (hFVIII-SQ; valoctocogene roxaparvovec) is an AAV-mediated product under evaluation for treatment of severe hemophilia A, which contains a B-domain-deleted hFVIII (hFVIII-SQ) transgene and a hybrid liver-specific promotor (HLP). To increase FVIII-SQ expression and reduce the vector dose required, a stronger promoter may be considered. However, because FVIII-SQ is a protein known to be difficult to fold and secrete, this could potentially induce endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. We evaluated the effect of two AAV5-hFVIII-SQ vectors with different liver-specific promoter strength (HLP << 100ATGB) on hepatic ER stress in mice. Five weeks after receiving vehicle or vector, the percentage of transduced hepatocytes and levels of liver hFVIII-SQ DNA and RNA increased dose dependently for both vectors. At lower doses, plasma hFVIII-SQ protein levels were higher for 100ATGB. This difference was attenuated at the highest dose. For 100ATGB, liver hFVIII-SQ protein accumulated dose dependently, with increased expression of ER stress markers at the highest dose, suggesting hepatocytes reached or exceeded their capacity to fold/secrete hFVIII-SQ. These data suggest that weaker promoters may require relatively higher doses to distribute expression load across a greater number of hepatocytes, whereas relatively stronger promoters may produce comparable levels of FVIII in fewer hepatocytes, with potential for ER stress.
