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

Pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PEXG) is characterized by dysregulated extracellular matrix (ECM) homeostasis that disrupts conventional outflow function and increases intraocular pressure (IOP). Prolonged IOP elevation results in optic nerve head damage and vision loss. Uniquely, PEXG is a form of open angle glaucoma that has variable penetrance, is difficult to treat and does not respond well to common IOP-lowering pharmaceuticals. Therefore, understanding modulators of disease severity will aid in targeted therapies for PEXG. Genome-wide association studies have identified polymorphisms in the long non-coding RNA lysyl oxidase-like 1-antisense 1 (LOXL1-AS1) as a risk factor for PEXG. Risk alleles, oxidative stress and mechanical stretch all alter LOXL1-AS1 expression. As a long non-coding RNA, LOXL1-AS1 binds hnRNPL and regulates global gene expression. In this study, we focus on the role of LOXL1-AS1 in the ocular cells (trabecular meshwork and Schlemm's canal) that regulate IOP. We show that selective knockdown of LOXL1-AS1 leads to cell-type-specific changes in gene expression, ECM homeostasis, signaling and morphology. These results implicate LOXL1-AS1 as a modulator of cellular homeostasis, altering cell contractility and ECM turnover, both of which are well-known contributors to PEXG. These findings support LOXL1-AS1 as a key target for modifying the disease.
