Genetic removal of Nlrp3 protects against sporadic and R345W Efemp1-induced basal laminar deposit formation.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Chronic, unresolved inflammation has long been speculated to serve as an initiating and propagating factor in numerous neurodegenerative diseases, including a leading cause of irreversible blindness in the elderly, age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Intracellular multiprotein complexes called inflammasomes in combination with activated caspases facilitate production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin 1 beta. Specifically, the nucleotide-binding oligomerization (NOD)-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) has received heightened attention due to the wide range of stimuli to which it can respond and its potential involvement in AMD. In this study, we directly tested the role of Nlrp3 and its downstream effector, caspase 1 (Casp1) in mediating early AMD-like pathology (i.e., basal laminar deposits [BLamDs]) in wild-type (WT) mice and the Malattia Leventinese/Doyne honeycomb retinal dystrophy (ML/DHRD) mouse model (p.R345W mutation in Efemp1). Compared to aged-matched controls, R345W
