Erythropoietin Receptor Signaling Supports Retinal Function after Vascular Injury.
Article in The American journal of pathology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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
The investigation of erythropoietin (EPO) has expanded to include potential nonhematopoietic roles in neural and retinal diseases, including diabetic retinopathy. However, it remains unclear how EPO functions to support the neural retina. Transgenic mice with hypoactive EPO receptor (EPOR) signaling (hWtEPOR) were compared with littermate control mice (WT) to test the role of EPOR signaling under normal conditions and after vascular injury and regrowth into the retina. Although retinal function tested with OptoMotry and electroretinography was comparable to adult (8-week-old) littermate WT mice, hWtEPOR mice had thinner inner and outer plexiform layers and a greater number of amacrine cells. Injury and repair caused by the oxygen-induced retinopathy model reduced visual acuity thresholds, reduced electroretinography amplitudes, and thinned the outer plexiform and inner nuclear layers of both WT and hWtEPOR 8-week-old mice. In hWtEPOR compared with WT mice, scotopic a-wave amplitudes were reduced by injury, despite no change in outer nuclear layer thickness; and peripheral rod, but not cone number, was reduced. Scotopic b-waves were reduced in injured hWtEPOR mice compared with WT, and rod bipolar cell ectopic neurites were increased in both genotypes after injury, suggesting a potential reparative process to preserve connectivity and the b-wave. Normal EPOR signaling appeared important because ectopic neurites and b-waves were lower in the hWtEPOR than WT injured mice.
