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

Purpose: To investigate the therapeutic potential of recombinant thrombomodulin domain 1 (rTMD1) in diabetic corneal wound healing and to elucidate its underlying mechanisms using in vitro and in vivo models. Methods: rTMD1 was produced using the Results: In vitro, HCECs treated with rTMD1 under HG conditions demonstrated a higher wound healing rate compared to untreated cells ( Conclusions: Topical application of rTMD1 promotes corneal epithelial wound healing in diabetic conditions by inhibiting HMGB1/TLR4/NLRP3-mediated inflammation. rTMD1 holds promise as a potential therapeutic agent for diabetic keratopathy, although further studies are needed to validate its clinical efficacy and safety.
