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
The excessive apoptosis of retinal nerve cells (RNCs) could cause a variety of retinal neurodegenerative diseases which could result in the irreversible blindness. In this study, the experiment models of H2O2 and light-induced oxidative insult in the retina of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat were used. We demonstrated the role of toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) in apoptosis and immune-inflammation induced by oxidative stress insult. Meanwhile, we also tried to elucidate the modulating mechanism of 17β-estradiol (E2) resistant to TLR2 induced by oxidative stress insult. The cell apoptosis induced by oxidative stress was examined by annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide (PI) assay using flow cytometry and the expressions of TLR2 and inflammatory cytokines were determined by real-time PCR and western blotting. Peptidoglycan (PGN) as the ligand of TLR2 and small interfering RNAs of TLR2 (siTLR2) were used to determine the role of TLR2. From the results, firstly, we demonstrated that E2 could reduce the expressions of TLR2 and inflammatory cytokines including TNF-ɑ, IFN-γ, and IL-1β induced by oxidative stress; secondly, the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) could not influence the effect of E2 on reducing TLR2 expression induced by H2O2 in RNCs; thirdly, PGN could promote the damage effect of H2O2 by transforming RNCs from late apoptosis to necrosis, however, E2 could decrease the cell apoptosis mediated by PGN; and finally, the apoptosis of RNCs and the expressions of the inflammatory cytokines induced by H2O2 administration were significantly inhibited after TLR2 interference. In summary, E2 reduces the TLR2-mediated immune-inflammation, thereby protecting RNCs against oxidative stress-induced apoptosis via a PI3K-independent signaling pathway. The present results provide evidence that inhibiting of TLR2-mediated immune-inflammation might be a possible therapeutic way to exert auxiliary role on E2 neuroprotection.
