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.
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
purposeWith increasing resistance of microorganisms to antibiotics, photodynamic inactivation (PDI) may also be a potential therapeutic option in infectious keratitis. As part of the inflammatory response in infectious keratitis, keratocytes produce various interleukins. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential anti-inflammatory effect of PDI, analyzing interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1α), interleukine-1 beta (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-8 (IL-8) secretion of human keratocytes following PDI, in vitro.
methodsPrimary human keratocytes were isolated by digestion in collagenase A (1.0 mg/ml) from human corneal buttons, and cultured in DMEM/Ham's F12 medium supplemented with 10% FCS. Keratocyte cell cultures underwent illumination using red (670 nm) light for 13 min following exposure to 100 nM concentration of the photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) in the culture medium. Five and 24 hours after PDI, secretion of IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-8 was measured by enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA).
resultsThe secretion of IL-1α was under the measurement limit in treated and untreated cell cultures 5 and 24 h after PDI. Compared to untreated controls, IL-6 and IL-8 secretion of keratocytes decreased (p < 0.05 and 0.0001) significantly 5 hours after PDI, whereas IL-1β secretion remained unchanged. Twenty-four hours after PDI, secretion of IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-8 did not differ significantly from untreated controls.
conclusionsIn the short term, PDI does not have an impact on IL-1α and IL-1β secretion of keratocytes, in vitro. Photodynamic inactivation inhibits IL-6 and IL-8 secretion of keratocytes transiently (5 h), which normalizes 24 h following treatment. Through the short-term impact of chlorine e6-PDI on IL-6 and IL-8 secretion, PDI may inhibit the inflammatory cascade in at least keratocyte cultures.
