Loss of αA or αB-Crystallin Accelerates Photoreceptor Cell Death in a Mouse Model of P23H Autosomal Dominant Retinitis Pigmentosa.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Inherited retinal degenerations (IRD) are a leading cause of visual impairment and can result from mutations in any one of a multitude of genes. Mutations in the light-sensing protein rhodopsin (RHO) is a leading cause of IRD with the most common of those being a missense mutation that results in substitution of proline-23 with histidine. This variant, also known as P23H-RHO, results in rhodopsin misfolding, initiation of endoplasmic reticulum stress, the unfolded protein response, and activation of cell death pathways. In this study, we investigate the effect of α-crystallins on photoreceptor survival in a mouse model of IRD secondary to P23H-RHO. We find that knockout of either αA- or αB-crystallin results in increased intraretinal inflammation, activation of apoptosis and necroptosis, and photoreceptor death. Our data suggest an important role for the ⍺-crystallins in regulating photoreceptor survival in the P23H-RHO mouse model of IRD.
