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 development of liver-based adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapies is facing concerns about limited efficiency and durability of transgene expression. We evaluated nonhuman primates following intravenous dosing of AAV8 and AAVrh10 vectors for over 2 years to better define the mechanism(s) of transduction that affect performance. High transduction of non-immunogenic transgenes was achieved, although expression declined over the first 90 days to reach a lower but stable steady state. More than 10% of hepatocytes contained single nuclear domains of vector DNA that persisted despite the loss of transgene expression. Greater reductions in vector DNA and RNA were observed with immunogenic transgenes. Genomic integration of vector sequences, including complex concatemeric structures, were detected in 1 out of 100 cells at broadly distributed loci that were not in proximity to genes associated with hepatocellular carcinoma. Our studies suggest that AAV-mediated transgene expression in primate hepatocytes occurs in two phases: high but short-lived expression from episomal genomes, followed by much lower but stable expression, likely from integrated vectors.
