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

During embryonic development, surface ectoderm differentiates to form corneal, conjunctival, and eyelid epidermal epithelia, and glandular epithelium (lacrimal and meibomian glands). Periocular mesenchymal cells of neural crest origin migrate and differentiate, leading to the formation of corneal endothelium and the stromas of the cornea, conjunctiva, eyelids, and trabecular meshwork. The formation of functional ocular surface tissues requires coordinated spatial and temporal expression of transcription factors and signaling molecules of various cytokines and signaling pathways, and the synthesis and remodeling of unique extracellular matrix. Although bidirectional interactions and signaling between mesenchyme and epithelium are considered necessary for embryonic formation of ocular surface tissues and homeostasis in adults, the molecular and cellular mechanisms that regulate such processes remain largely unknown. To investigate possible mechanisms, we have developed mouse models in which the gene functions of ocular surface epithelia and stromas can be altered by Doxycycline induction in spatial and temporal specific manners.
