ReviewConnective tissue research
Lens capsule as a model to study type IV collagen.
Review in Connective tissue research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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
The study of collagen IV has benefited greatly from the seminal work conducted by Arthur Veis and colleagues over three decades ago. Through a series of electron microscopy studies focused on lens basement membrane, an appreciation was gained for the distinct network-forming properties of collagen IV. Veis correctly suggested that network assembly is a phenomenon of the non-collagenous termini of the molecule. This review seeks to document how the field advanced following these seminal conclusions, including recent discoveries regarding the molecular reinforcement of networks that support Veis' conclusions.
