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

While adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors have demonstrated efficacy in multiple organ systems, gene delivery to the lung remains an unmet therapeutic target. To treat a monogenic lung disease like surfactant protein B deficiency, a gene delivery system must overcome pulmonary barriers and be validated in models that closely resemble the human respiratory tract. Here, we optimized the endotracheal delivery of AAV6.2FF, an engineered capsid with enhanced pulmonary tropism, in neonatal piglets with lung features comparable to those of human newborns. We optimized delivery parameters that improved pulmonary distribution and applied them to administer AAV6.2FF expressing secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) at two different doses: 5 × 10
