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

Various administration routes of adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based gene therapy have been examined to target the central nervous system to answer the question what the most optimal delivery route is for treatment of the brain with certain indications. In this study, we evaluated AAV5 vector system for its capability to target the central nervous system via intrastriatal, intrathalamic or intracerebroventricular delivery routes in rats. AAV5 is an ideal candidate for gene therapy because of its relatively low level of existing neutralizing antibodies compared to other serotypes, and its broad tissue and cell tropism. Intrastriatal administration of AAV5-GFP resulted in centralized localized vector distribution and expression in the frontal part of the brain. Intrathalamic injection showed transduction and gradient expression from the rostral brain into lumbar spinal cord, while intracerebroventricular administration led to a more evenly, albeit relatively superficially distributed, transduction and expression throughout the central nervous system. To visualize the differences between localized and intra-cerebral spinal fluid administration routes, we compared intrastriatal to intracerebroventricular and intrathecal administration of AAV5-GFP. Together, our results demonstrate that for efficient transgene expression, various administration routes can be applied.
