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 study of gene therapies has been of particular interest in recent decades due to their promising potential to slow or even rescue the degeneration of the retina in inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs). Here, we review the current approaches to gene therapy trials on IRDs, including the selection of animal models, therapeutic window, vectors and dosages. Mice are typically the first choice of animal models and recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) of serotype 8 is the most common vector for loss-of-function IRDs. Furthermore, the therapeutic window should be considered to ensure efficacy before retinal degeneration occurs if possible, and dosages must be tailored to each approach.
