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

Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are progressive degenerative diseases which cause gradual vision loss or complete blindness. As over 270 gene mutations have been identified in the underlying pathology of IRDs, gene therapy as a treatment modality has been an increasingly active realm of investigation. Currently, the most common vehicle of ocular gene delivery is the adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector. This is injected into the immune-privileged subretinal space to mediate transgene expression in retinal cells. Although numerous animal models of IRDs have demonstrated successful outcomes following AAV-mediated gene delivery, many of these studies fail to translate into successful outcomes in clinical trials. The purpose of this review is to A) comparatively assess preclinical and clinical IRD trials in which the success of AAV-mediated therapy failed to translate between animal and human participants B) discuss factors which may complicate the translatability of gene therapy in animals to results in humans.
