Gene augmentation therapy successfully treats mice with complete congenital stationary night blindness (cCSNB), improving retinal function and visual acuity.
Article in Gene therapy, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) mediated gene therapy is an effective approach for targeting therapeutic genes to retinal photoreceptors. Complete congenital stationary night blindness (cCSNB) is a genetically heterogeneous inherited retinal disease caused by mutations in one of several genes that are part of a large, interdependent depolarizing bipolar cell (DBC) signalplex required for normal synaptic signaling with photoreceptors. These genes include NYX, GRM6, TRPM1, GPR179, and LRIT3, and the resulting cCSNB phenotype is characterized by abnormally low-light vision, myopia, and nystagmus, but does not include retinal degeneration. Because of the non-progressive and recessive nature of cCSNB, we investigated the potential of a gene augmentation approach in the mature retina to improve retinal function and cortical visual acuity. We used a mouse model of cCSNB caused by LRIT3 loss to evaluate the efficacy of a single subretinal injection of an rAAV expressing LRIT3 in either rods or cones, and the extent of restoration of retinal function and visual acuity. We show that gene augmentation by expressing LRIT3 in Lrit3
