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

A major barrier to adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy is the inability to re-dose patients due to formation of vector-induced neutralizing antibodies (Nabs). Tolerogenic nanoparticles encapsulating rapamycin (ImmTOR) provide long-term and specific suppression of adaptive immune responses, allowing for vector re-dosing. Moreover, co-administration of hepatotropic AAV vectors and ImmTOR leads to an increase of transgene expression even after the first dose. ImmTOR and AAV Anc80 encoding the methylmalonyl-coenzyme A (CoA) mutase (MMUT) combination was tested in a mouse model of methylmalonic acidemia, a disease caused by mutations in the
