The relationship between intervention in the CD40 signal pathway and choroidal neovascularization.
Review in OncoTargets and therapy, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Age-related macular degeneration, pathologic myopia, ocular trauma, and other eye diseases can cause choroidal neovascularization (CNV). In recent years, photodynamic therapy (PDT), anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) medications, laser treatment, and other measures against CNV have been gradually applied in the clinical setting and in some cases have achieved good results. However, the pathogenesis of CNV has not been fully elucidated. The costimulatory system made up of cluster of differentiation 40 protein (CD40) and its ligand (CD40L) is an important signal transduction pathway among immune cells. The activation of CD40 can also stimulate the secretion of a variety of angiogenic growth factors (eg, VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factors that might lead to CNV. The high level expression of CD40 and CD40L has been detected in CNV diseases. Interference with the CD40 signaling pathway may become a new target for CNV treatment. We review the relationship between CD40, CD40L, and CNV.
