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

Recent proteomic studies have identified components of the kallikrein kinin system, including plasma kallikrein, factor XII, and kininogen, in vitreous obtained from individuals with advanced diabetic retinopathy. In rodent models, activation of plasma kallikrein in vitreous increases retinal vascular permeability; whereas inhibition of the kallikrein kinin system reduces retinal leakage induced by diabetes and hypertension. These findings suggest that intraocular activation of the plasma kallikrein pathway may contribute to excessive retinal vascular permeability that can lead to diabetic macular edema. The kallikrein kinin system contains two separate and independently regulated serine proteases that generate bradykinin peptides: plasma kallikrein and tissue kallikrein. Tissue kallikrein is expressed in the retina and ciliary body, where it has been implicated in exerting autocrine or paracrine effects via bradykinin receptors that are colocalized in these tissues. Emerging evidence suggests that plasma kallikrein inhibitors may provide a new therapeutic opportunity to reduce retinal vascular permeability.
