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

As the major channel of aqueous humor outflow, dysfunction of trabecular meshwork (TM) can lead to intraocular pressure elevating, which can trigger primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). In this study, we use single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) technique to build an atlas and further explore the spontaneous POAG and healthy macaques cellular heterogeneity associated with the dysfunction of TM contraction. We built the TM atlas, which identified 14 different cell types. In Beam A, Beam B, Beam C, and smooth muscle cell (SMC) cell types, we first found multiple genes associated with TM contraction (e.g., TPM1, ACTC1, TNNT1), determining their differential expression in the POAG and healthy groups. In addition, the microstructural alterations in TM of POAG non-human primates were observed, which was compact and collapsed. Thus, our study indicated that TPM1 may be a key target for regulating TM structure, contraction function, and resistance of aqueous humor outflow.
