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

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of visual impairment. To better understand the pathology, clinically relevant experimental models are needed. Widely used DR models (especially streptozotocin (STZ)-induced) require extended timeframes to reach DR phenotype endpoints and lack ischemic phenotypes, which are in contrast to the human condition. Unilateral common carotid artery occlusion (UCCAO) could provide a retinal ischemic insult. We explored the pathologic synergistic effects of UCCAO in STZ mice. STZ (90 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally into adult C57BL/6 mice for three days. Four weeks later, right UCCAO was performed. One week after UCCAO, retinal samples were stained with isolectin B4 to analyze cellular and vascular changes. Retinal samples were obtained one day and one week after UCCAO and quantitative PCR (qPCR) were performed to observe inflammatory and ischemic responses. Only the STZ UCCAO group showed increased inflammatory cells. STZ UCCAO retina demonstrated a significant difference in capillary and large vessel size compared to other groups. At one day and one week, there was a change in mRNA expressions in inflammatory genes
