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

We report a series of three young patients (ages: 22 months, 2 years, and 5 years) who developed subretinal deposits at post-operative week one following subretinal voretigene neparvovec-rzyl treatment for RPE65-mediated retinal dystrophy. In the 5-year-old, subretinal deposits were also observed in the inferior periphery of both eyes. All three patients experienced improved visual function with treatment, and both the macular and inferior subretinal deposits have improved or resolved over the follow-up period. These findings may inform the delivery parameters and safety profile of AAV-based gene therapy as the number of retinal gene therapy trials continues to grow.
