Targeting the liver to treat the eye.
Article in EMBO molecular medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Over the last two decades, gene therapy has given hope of potential cure for many rare diseases. In the simplest form, gene therapy is the transfer or editing of a genetic material to cure a disease via nonviral or viral vehicles. Gene therapy can be performed either in vivo by injecting a vector carrying the gene or tools for gene editing directly into a tissue or into the systemic circulation, or ex vivo when patient cells are genetically modified outside of the body and then introduced back into the patient (Yilmaz et al, 2022). Adeno-associated viral vectors (AAV) have been the vectors of choice for in vivo gene therapy. There has been a lot of promising research on the development of novel tissue and cell-specific serotypes in order to improve efficacy and safety for clinical applications (Kuzmin et al, 2021). In this issue of EMBO Molecular Medicine, Boffa and colleagues present a novel AAV-based liver-directed gene therapy for ornithine aminotransferase deficiency.
