Emerging options for the management of age-related macular degeneration with stem cells.
Review in Stem cells and cloning : advances and applications, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a devastating retinal disease that occurs in later life as the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells die, with subsequent photoreceptor degeneration. In the past, RPE transplant surgeries gave evidence that AMD was potentially treatable, but it involved limited amounts of ocular tissue, and the complication rate was high. Then, stem cell transplants offered an unlimited supply of retinal precursors for endogenous repair and exogenous cell replacement. Debate continues as to which type of stem cell is most appropriate for treating AMD. The prospects include adult-derived progenitor stem cells (including progenitor cells from ocular tissues), hematopoietic stem cells, embryonic stem cells, and induced pluripotent stem cells. Now the therapy is expanding into phase I human trials. This review examines the collective research contributions toward a clinical model of AMD management with stem cells.
