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

The eye is the organ in charge of vision and, given its properties, has become an excellent organ to test genetic therapies, including antisense oligonucleotide (AON) technology. In fact, the first AON receiving FDA and EMA approval was meant to treat an eye condition. Currently, dozens of clinical trials are being conducted for a variety of subtypes of inherited retinal disease. Although most of them are based on gene augmentation therapies, a phase 3 and two phase 1/2 clinical trials using AONs are ongoing. Since the retina is a layered structure of nondividing cells, obtaining human retinal tissue and expanding it in the lab is not possible, unless induced pluripotent stem cell technology is used. Mouse models have helped to elucidate the function of many genes, and the retinal structure is quite similar to that of humans. Thus, drug delivery to the mouse eye can provide valuable information for further optimization of therapies. In this chapter, the protocol for intravitreal injections of AONs is described in detail.
