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

Wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) with choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is a leading cause of vision loss in the elderly. The advent of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drugs represents a major breakthrough in wet AMD therapy but with limited efficacy to improve visual acuity. Secretogranin III (Scg3, SgIII) was recently discovered as a novel angiogenic factor with VEGF-independent mechanisms. Scg3-neutralizing monoclonal antibody (mAb) was reported to alleviate pathological retinal neovascularization in oxygen-induced retinopathy mice and retinal vascular leakage in diabetic mice with high efficacy and disease selectivity. Herein we investigated whether Scg3 is a novel angiogenic target for CNV therapy in mouse models. We found that anti-Scg3 ML49.3 mAb inhibited Scg3-induced proliferation and Src phosphorylation in human retinal microvascular endothelial cells. Intravitreal injection of Scg3-neutralizing polyclonal antibodies (pAb) or mAb significantly attenuated laser-induced CNV leakage, CNV 3D volume, lesion area and vessel density. Furthermore, subcutaneous administration of Scg3-neutralizing pAb or mAb significantly prevented Matrigel-induced CNV. The efficacy of anti-Scg3 pAb or mAb was comparable to VEGF inhibitor aflibercept. These findings suggest that Scg3 plays an important role in CNV pathogenesis and that anti-Scg3 mAb efficiently ameliorates laser- or Matrigel-induced CNV.
