Effect of Rho-kinase Inhibitor, Y27632, on Porcine Corneal Endothelial Cell Culture, Inflammation and Immune Regulation.
Article in Ocular immunology and inflammation, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeTo investigate the effect of the Rho-kinase inhibitor, Y27632, on pig corneal endothelial cell (pCEC) culture, and on inflammation and immune regulation of the responses of human cells to pCECs.
methodspCECs were cultured with/without Y27632 to assess cell proliferation and in vitro wound healing assay. The level of MCP-1 and VEGF in pCECs stimulated with human TNF-α were measured. Proliferation of human PBMCs stimulated with pCECs, and cytokine production in human T cells, and monocyte migration after stimulation were investigated.
resultsY27632 promoted pCEC proliferation, prevented pCEC death, and enhanced in vitro wound healing. After stimulation, there were significantly lower levels of MCP-1 and VEGF measured in pCECs cultured with Y27632, and significantly reduced human PBMC proliferation, cytokine production, and monocyte migration.
conclusionsThe application of the Rho-kinase inhibitor will be beneficial when culturing pCECs, and may provide a novel therapy to reduce inflammation after corneal xenotransplantation.
