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

There is no unique formula for angiogenesis. Instead there is a large group of potential participating proteins that interact in complex ways. Depending upon the surrounding cell types and the relative expression levels of angiogenesis-related proteins, the 'angiogenesis cascade' can vary. Therefore, it is valuable to study and compare the role of proteins in several well-characterized vascular beds. The eye provides a useful model system, because it contains several vascular beds sandwiched between avascular tissue. This allows for unequivocal identification and quantitation of new vessels. Retina-specific promoters combined with inducible promoter systems provide a means to regulate the expression of proteins of interest. As a relatively isolated compartment, the eye also provides advantages for gene transfer. By gaining insight regarding the molecular signals involved in various types of ocular angiogenesis, general concepts can emerge that may apply to other settings, including tumor angiogenesis. One concept that has emerged is that despite participation of multiple stimulatory factors for ocular neovascularization, VEGF plays an essential role and interruption of VEGF signaling is an important therapeutic strategy. Another concept is that while most studies have focused on prevention of ocular neovascularization, regression of new vessels is desirable and is achievable with at least three agents, combretastatin A-4 phosphate, pigment epithelium-derived factor, and angiopoietin-2. Finally, endostatin and angiostatin, which have been sources of controversy because of inconsistent results in tumor models, have been shown to have good efficacy when delivered by gene transfer in models of ocular neovascularization. These results provide leads for new ocular treatments and perspective for evaluation of studies of neovascularization in extraocular tissues.
