The structure, function, and distribution of gap junctions in the retina: Life cycle in health and disease.
Review in Journal of cell communication and signaling, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Gap junctions are essential channels of communication between cells including neurons in the central nervous system. These channels coordinate cell metabolic and electrical functions including such crucial ones for maintaining homeostasis as cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, and apoptosis. They create narrow passageways that allow rapid exchange of small molecules, ions, and secondary messengers between neighboring cells including the retina and optic nerve. Disruption in normal functioning of gap junctions may result in various neurodegenerative disorders. A comprehensive understanding of gap junction composition, function, and regulation is the key in determining novel approaches to neuroprotection and neuroregeneration. Here, we review the structure and the role of gap junctions in the retina and discuss the life cycle of connexins and their involvement in retinal neurodegenerations.
