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

Adeno-associated virus (AAV), renowned for its exceptionally low pathogenicity and significant efficacy in clinical gene therapy, has emerged as a leading delivery vector in the field of gene therapy. AAV can achieve stable gene expression in various tissues, which has made it a promising treatment for genetic disorders. To date, eight AAV-based gene therapies have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA). This review summarizes clinical trials of AAV gene therapies for rare diseases, including ophthalmic diseases, nervous system disorders, hematological diseases, neuromuscular diseases, lysosomal storage diseases. We also explore potential side effects and toxicities associated with AAV therapies. Our objective is to provide valuable insights for researchers and clinicians working on AAV-based therapies, helping improve the safety and effectiveness of these treatments.
