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

Increasing evidence suggests that trabecular meshwork (TM) cells participate in the regulation of intraocular pressure by controlling the rate of filtration of the aqueous humor. Ionic conductances that regulate cell volume and shape have been suggested to play an important role in TM cell volume regulation. Here, we compared ionic currents from TM cells derived from a normal subject (CTM) and from an individual affected by glaucoma (GTM). We found that while the ionic current types were similar, the current amplitudes and percentage of cells endowed with specific current at baseline were different in the two cell lines. Thus, we found that the majority of CTM cells were endowed with a swelling-activated Cl(-) current at baseline, whereas in the majority of GTM cells this current was not active at baseline and became activated only after perfusion with a hypotonic solution. An inward rectifier K(+) current was also more prevalent in CTM than in GTM cells. Our work suggests that disregulation of one or more of these ionic currents may be at the basis of TM cell participation in the development of glaucoma.
