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

Proliferative diabetic retinopathy is a consequence of retinal ischemia due to capillary occlusion resulting from damage to the retinal microvascular endothelium. Recent evidence suggests that high levels of bone-marrow derived circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) contribute to the pathological neovascularization of ischemic tissues and are a critical risk factor for the development of these complications. In the absence of a consensus definition of a circulating EPC and its surface markers in humans we evaluated the functional properties of CD34(+) CD45(-) endothelial colony forming cells (ECFCs) in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). Higher levels of circulating CD34(+) CD45(-) cells were observed in patients with PDR compared to controls. However, ECFCs from patients with PDR were impaired in their ability to migrate towards SDF-1 and human serum, incorporate into and form vascular tubes with human retinal endothelial cells. The results from these pilot studies suggest that ECFCs from patients with PDR are mobilized into the circulation but may be unable to migrate and repair damaged capillary endothelium. This suggests that ECFCs may be a potential therapeutic target in the prevention and treatment of diabetic vascular complications.
