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

objectiveIn the present study, we investigated the effects of Magnolol on the retinal neovascularization (RNV) and local glial cells in an oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) model and explored their molecular mechanisms. MATERIALS AND

methodsNeonatal C57BL/6J mice were subjected to 75% O2 ± 5% from postnatal day (P) 7 to P12 and subsequently returned to room air. Mice were injected with 25 mg/kg Magnolol intraperitoneally once a day from P12 to P17, then retinas were harvested and flat-mounted to assess the retinal vessels, astrocytes and microglia. To clarify the molecular mechanisms of Magnolol, we observed the level of inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, tumor necrosis factor-α, and analyzed the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α/vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) pathway in OIR mice.

resultsIntraperitoneal administration of Magnolol resulted in significant reduction of RNV without retinal toxicity or perturbation of developmental retinal angiogenesis. In addition, Magnolol preserved the astrocyte morphology and diminished the activation of microglia. Moreover, Magnolol down regulated the expression of inflammatory cytokines and inactivated the HIF-1α/VEGF pathway.

conclusionsThese results indicated that Magnolol might have potential for the treatment of pathological retinal angiogenesis and glial dysfunctions via anti-inflammation and inhibition of HIF-1α/VEGF pathway.
