Time-dependent Glucocorticoid-Induced Transcriptomic Changes in Human Trabecular Meshwork and Schlemm's Canal.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: To identify the transcriptomic changes induced by dexamethasone (DEX) in trabecular meshwork (TM) and Schlemm's canal endothelial (SCE) cells with RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq). Methods: Human TM (n=10) and SCE cell strains (n=5) were isolated from healthy donor eyes and exposed to DEX 100nM and vehicle (control). Three DEX exposure times were evaluated: 1-hour, 6-hours, and 2 days. RNA-seq was performed on Illumina's TruSeq platform and gene expression was quantified using featureCount. DESeq2 paired (treated and untreated) sample test was applied to identify genes transcriptionally responsive to DEX (DEGs) at false discovery rate <0.05. Gene-set enrichment analyses were performed on DEGs. DEGs were tested for association with glaucoma (POAG) and intraocular pressure (IOP). Results: Nine TM and 4 SCE strains passed quality control. After 2-day DEX exposure, there were 857 and 2,086 DEGs in TM and SCE, respectively. Of these, 411 genes were differentially expressed in both TM and SCE, including Conclusions: This study identified candidate genes and pathways for glucocorticoid-induced ocular hypertension which can be further explored in human genetic analyses.
