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
purposeRetinal hypoxia plays a crucial role in ocular neovascular diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy, retinopathy of prematurity, and retinal vascular occlusion. Fluorescein angiography is useful for identifying the hypoxia extent by detecting non-perfusion areas or neovascularization, but its ability to detect early stages of hypoxia is limited. Recently, in vivo fluorescent probes for detecting hypoxia have been developed; however, these have not been extensively applied in ophthalmology. We evaluated whether a novel donor-excited photo-induced electron transfer (d-PeT) system based on an activatable hypoxia-selective near-infrared fluorescent (NIRF) probe (GPU-327) responds to both mild and severe hypoxia in various ocular ischemic diseases animal models.
methodsThe ocular fundus examination offers unique opportunities for direct observation of the retina through the transparent cornea and lens. After injection of GPU-327 in various ocular hypoxic diseases of mouse and rabbit models, NIRF imaging in the ocular fundus can be performed noninvasively and easily by using commercially available fundus cameras. To investigate the safety of GPU-327, electroretinograms were also recorded after GPU-327 and PBS injection.
resultFluorescence of GPU-327 increased under mild hypoxic conditions in vitro. GPU-327 also yielded excellent signal-to-noise ratio without washing out in vivo experiments. By using near-infrared region, GPU-327 enables imaging of deeper ischemia, such as choroidal circulation. Additionally, from an electroretinogram, GPU-327 did not cause neurotoxicity.
conclusionsGPU-327 identified hypoxic area both in vivo and in vitro.
