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

The dysfunction of mitochondria, the "energy factories" of cells, not only causes an insufficiency of energy production but also leads to various pathological alterations in cells such as the accumulation of reactive oxygen species, inflammatory responses and mitochondrial DNA damage, all of which were involved in the onset or deterioration of diseases. The presence of mitochondrial dysfunction has been confirmed in many ocular surface diseases such as dry eye, Fuchs corneal endothelial dystrophy and diabetic keratopathy. However, its role in the pathogenesis of ocular surface diseases and underlying molecular mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Moreover, mitochondrial therapies for ocular surface diseases are currently still under investigation. This mini-review summarizes the pathological features of mitochondrial dysfunction and its mechanisms that have been identified in the pathogenesis of ocular surface diseases, and discusses the potential of mitochondrial therapies in the treatment of these diseases.
