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

Clinical efficacy of virotherapy is often limited by poor transduction and off-target effects. To overcome these hurdles, we engineered a multi-stage, pH-responsive virus-drug conjugate (VDC) for targeted, cancer immunotherapy. Our VDC comprises a recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 2 (AAV2) encoding a programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) short hairpin RNA (shRNA), which is chemically conjugated to the transduction-enhancing doxorubicin (Dox) with minimally cytotoxic dosage. This AAV2-Dox is shielded by a polyethylene glycol (PEG) layer attached via a pH-sensitive benzoic-imine linker, designed to be stable at physiological pH but cleavable within the acidic tumor microenvironment. AAV2-Dox produced an equivalent enhancement of transgene expression at a much lower concentration (0.005 µg mL
