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 Herpes simplex virus (HSV)-based platform for production of recombinant adeno-associated viral vectors (rAAVs) yields higher titers and increased percentage of full capsids when compared to the triple transient transfection (TTT) method. However, this platform currently faces two major challenges. The first challenge is the reliance on commercial media, sometimes supplemented with serum, leading to costly manufacturing and a high risk for introduction of adventitious agents. The second challenge is that the production of HSV-1 relies on adherent complementing Vero cells (V27), making it difficult to scale up. We engineered serum-free-adapted CHO cells expressing key HSV-1 entry receptors, HVEM and/or Nectin-1 to address the first challenge. Using high-throughput cloning methods, we successfully selected a HVEM receptor-expressing clone (CHO-HV-C1) that yields 1.62 × 10
