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

The lipid storage disorders have long been considered primary candidates for enzyme replacement therapy. This goal has been achieved with a remarkable degree of success in Gaucher's disease. Among the accomplishments that were important to obtain clinical benefit were the development of a large-scale procedure to purify human placental glucocerebrosidase and a method to target this enzyme to lipid-storing macrophages through glycoform modification. In addition, the effectiveness of recombinantly produced macrophage-targeted glucocerebrosidase has recently been demonstrated. Because macrophages originate from stem cells in the bone marrow, ex vivo transduction of these cells with retroviral vectors containing the cDNA for human glucocerebrosidase is being explored for the genetic therapy of Gaucher's disease.
