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

purposeProteins in the vitreous play an important role on the induction of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) after retinal detachment. The aim of this study was to investigate the variation of protein patterns in the vitreous of PVR eyes and examine whether differentially expressed protein levels were expressed in experimental PVR retina.

methodsVitreous samples from PVR and macular hole patients were selected for proteomic analysis. The vitreous protein samples were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE). The differentially expressed protein spots in the two groups were excised and subjected to in-gel digestion and identification by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) analysis. Two differentially expressed proteins, zinc finger protein 670 (ZFP 670) and prostaglandin D2 synthase (PGD2S), were further validated by immunohistochemical staining and western blotting analysis in the retina of the experimental rabbit PVR model.

resultsIn proteome analysis of human vitreous samples, five proteins had increased expression in PVR, including zinc finger protein 670 (ZFP 670), prostaglandin D2 synthase (PGD2S), IgG (Immunoglobulin G) light chain, transthyretin precursor, and haptoglobin precursor. ZFP 670 and PGD2S levels were expressed significantly higher in the experimental PVR retinas than in the control group.

conclusionsLevels of ZFP 670 and PGD2S were elevated in the vitreous fluid of patients with PVR. In addition, there were higher expressions of ZFP 670 and PGD2S in the experimental PVR retina. This result will expand our knowledge of pathophysiologic characteristics of PVR, and might be helpful for further developing possible treatment on this disorder.
