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

Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) has emerged as an important gene therapy vector with many clinical trials currently in progress. Analytical characterization and quantitation of particle content remain challenges in both the development and production of rAAV vectors. In this study, charge detection mass spectrometry (CDMS) and gel electrophoresis are used to characterize the DNA content of recombinant AAV8 (rAAV8) vectors with a wide range of target genome sizes. We show that the differences between the masses of empty particles and particles with the genome of interest (GOI) are correlated with the expected genome mass. A small systematic deviation (around 2%) is attributed to the packaging of counterions along with the DNA. In addition to the GOI, a broad distribution of heterogeneous DNA is packaged. The distribution peaks are close to the packaging capacity of the rAAV8 vectors. There is also evidence for the co-packaging of small DNA fragments along with the GOI. Finally, we present evidence that incubation at an elevated temperature can reduce the heterogeneity of the packaged DNA. Taken together, these results show that CDMS is a viable tool for characterization of the packaged genome.
