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

aimTo determine the effects of epidermal growth factor (EGF) on the proliferation and migration of Müller cell line Moorfields/Institute of Ophthalmology-Müller 1 (MIO-M1), and its related molecular mechanisms under normal and oxidative stress conditions.

methodsMüller cells were cultured with different concentrations of EGF in the presence or absence of varied amounts of H2O2 and glucose oxidase (GO) which induced oxidative stress. The proliferation and migration of Müller cells were examined by 5-Bromo-2-deoxyUridine (BrdU), MTT assay, Transwell assay and scratch wound healing assays. The cell viability was determined with the MTT assay. The secretion of EGF by Müller cells was evaluated by ELISA. Western blot was performed to detect the activation of extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERK)1/2 and Akt signal pathways.

resultsEGF stimulated the proliferation and migration of Müller cells in a concentration-dependent manner in vitro. Under oxidative damage condition, 2h of pretreatment with 10-100 ng/mL EGF can mostly inhibit 50% lethal dose of 0.08 mmol/L H2O2-induced cell damage. The Western blot results showed that after Müller cells were exposed to varying EGF for 24h, Akt and ERK1/2 were phosphorylated in a dose-dependent manner. In the presence of the LY294002, the potent PI3K inhibitor, the p-Akt was significantly attenuated.

conclusionEGF may induce the proliferation and migration of human Müller cells through the Akt and the ERK1/2 signal pathways, and induce PI3K-mediated glioprotective effect under oxidative stress.
