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

Nanoblades are viral particles loaded with the Cas9 protein complexed with gRNA, which allowed efficient gene editing in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Combined with recombinant adeno-associated vector (rAAV) 6 containing two homologous arms to a gene locus resulted in 50% of expression cassette knockin into HSPCs. However, high effective doses of rAAV6 induced HSPC cell death. Here, we demonstrated that, at high doses, rAAV2 was much less toxic for template DNA delivery and allowed transduction levels in HSPCs equivalent to rAAV6. To improve donor template delivery, rAAV2 and rAAV6 were chemically bio-conjugated with a mannose ligand, via the lysine or tyrosine amino acid residues exposed at the adeno-associated vector (AAV) capsid surface. High-level transduction of HSPCs with mannose-coupled rAAV6 vectors accompanied by a remarkable lower toxicity was achieved as compared to control rAAV6 in correlation with highly reduced p53 pathway activation. Mannose-conjugated rAAV6 combined with nanoblades allowed efficient gene knockin and increased survival of HSPCs from 10% to 80% as compared to the unmodified rAAV6 even in the most immature CD34
