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

VEGF is more potent than histamine by a factor of 50,000 for inducing increased vessel permeability. Already in the first few minutes, hydraulic conductivity and diffusive permeability are significantly increased, followed by a longer-lasting, marked leakage over 20 h. Specific inhibition of the angiogenic, vasoactive, and permeability-inducing protein VEGF is now possible by new drugs, one of which is the first available (off-label) treatment in Germany for routine clinical use (Avastin). Retinal edema is composed of increased outflow of water and low molecular substances in the interstitial environment and is an important determinate of functional development in different ocular diseases. First experiences with the anti-hyperpermeability effect show early response and high potential in pathologic leakage. Future examinations have to assess when a permanent benefit can be achieved in respect to the other antiproliferative capabilities of the drug.
