Multimodal Imaging of the Corneal Endothelial Transition Zone Reveals Progenitor Cell Population.
Article in Cells, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The assessment of donor corneas is currently based solely on central endothelial cell (EC) density, which potentially overlooks the transition zone (TZ) regenerative potential. Therefore, the present study characterizes TZ using multimodal imaging techniques to understand its regenerative potential and refine the assessment of donor tissue. Ex vivo donor corneas (n = 41) were examined using phase-contrast microscopy for EC counting and reflectance confocal microscopy (HRTII/RCM) for non-invasive visualization of the TZ. A subset of eight of these corneas underwent ultrastructural analysis using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and immunostaining analysis using confocal microscopy. We observed a significant decrease in central EC density (
