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

Glaucoma is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by RGC loss and irreversible visual impairment, representing the second leading cause of global blindness. Immune-inflammatory responses and oxidative stress are core pathological drivers of glaucomatous optic nerve degeneration, forming a vicious cycle via the TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 inflammasome axis, complement overactivation, and dysregulation of the endogenous antioxidant system. These processes trigger sustained neuroinflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and RGC apoptosis. Antioxidant therapies targeting the immune-oxidative stress axis have emerged as promising neuroprotective strategies, including classic antioxidants, Nrf2 activators (e.g., NOB), nanocarrier-mediated targeted delivery systems, and PBM. This mini-review summarizes key molecular mechanisms linking immune activation and oxidative damage in glaucoma, reviews recent advances in the development of antioxidant therapeutics, and discusses current challenges and future directions for clinical translation.
