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

Optimizing adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsid and dosing selection is critical for the clinical translation of retinal gene therapy. This study aims to provide a comprehensive reference by comparing the transduction efficiency, cellular tropisms, and temporal retinal expression patterns of various AAV serotypes for intravitreal retinal gene therapy. A series of AAV vectors were intravitreally injected into C57BL/6J mice. Retinal tissues were harvested 4 weeks post-injection to evaluate the transgene expression and cellular tropisms by immunostaining. Both ssAAV2.NN and scAAV2.NN vectors at a dose escalation were administered, with similar assessments conducted at 2 and 4 weeks post-injection. Additionally, the early-phase retinal transduction profiles of AAV vectors were detected at multiple time points within 12 weeks following administration. Stronger green fluorescent protein (GFP) fluorescence was observed in retinas intravitreally transduced with AAV2.NN, AAV2.GL, and AAV8 vectors, with AAV2.GL showing greater co-localization with GS IMPORTANCE: The retinal transduction efficiency and cellular tropisms of serial AAV serotypes, including AAV2, AAV2.7m8, AAV2.NN, AAV2.GL, AAV8, AAV11, and AAV.SPR, were simultaneously and unbiasedly quantified and compared following intravitreal injection. Transgene fluorescence was detectable in cells as early as 3 days post-injection in retinas intravitreally transduced with both ssAAV2.NN and scAAV2.NN vectors. The timeliness of the onset and level of transgene expression in retinas intravitreally transduced with ssAAV2.NN and scAAV2.NN vectors were characterized during the early phase post-injection. Differences in retinal transduction efficiency and cellular tropisms of scAAV2.NN vectors at varying doses via intravitreal injection are described.
