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

Gene therapy involves introducing genetic material into cells to treat or prevent disease and offers highly targeted and potentially curative approaches for both inherited and acquired conditions. The skin is an especially suitable organ for gene therapy due to its accessibility, ease of sampling, rapid cell turnover, and the possibility for localized treatment with minimal systemic exposure. Gene therapy is being actively explored across a range of dermatological conditions, including recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, ichthyosis, psoriasis, chronic wounds, and melanoma, with therapeutic strategies encompassing viral vectors, non-viral delivery systems, gene editing technologies, RNA-based treatments, and cell-based approaches. These diverse methods aim to correct genetic defects, modulate immune responses, promote tissue repair, or selectively target malignant cells. This review examines the advancements and potential of gene therapies in addressing complex skin diseases, providing hope for improved patient outcomes and long-term care.
