Preferential transduction of parvalbumin-expressing cortical neurons by AAV-mDLX5/6 vectors.
Article in Frontiers in neuroscience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
A major goal of modern neuroscience is to understand the functions of the varied neuronal types that comprise the mammalian brain. Toward this end, some types of neurons can be targeted and manipulated with enhancer-bearing AAV vectors. These vectors hold great promise to advance basic and translational neuroscience, but to realize this potential, their selectivity must be characterized. In this study, we investigated the selectivity of AAV vectors carrying an enhancer of the murine Dlx5 and Dlx6 genes. Vectors were injected into the visual cortex of two macaque monkeys, the frontal cortex of two others, and the somatosensory/motor cortex of three rats. Post-mortem immunostaining revealed that parvalbumin-expressing neurons were transduced efficiently in all cases but calretinin-expressing neurons were not. We speculate that this specificity is a consequence of differential activity of this DLX5/6 enhancer in adult neurons of different developmental lineages.
