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

Retinal ischemia is a condition associated with retinal degenerative diseases such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and other optic neuropathies, leading to visual impairment and blindness worldwide. Currently, there is no therapy available for ischemic retinopathies. Therefore, the aim of this study was to test a murine model of pterygopalatine artery ligation-induced retinal injury for transplantation of mouse bone marrow-derived lineage-negative (lin-ve) stem cells. The mouse external carotid artery and pterygopalatine artery were ligated for 3.5 h followed by reperfusion. The model was validated through fundus fluorescein angiography, laser Doppler and FITC dextran perfusion in whole-mounts. Lin-ve stem cells isolated from mouse bone marrow were transplanted through tail-vein, which showed migration to retina leading to decrease in GFAP expression. The neurotrophic factors such as BDNF and FGF2 showed enhanced expression in the retina. The functional analysis with electroretinogram did not demonstrate any significant changes before or after injury or stem cell transplantation. This study shows a neuroprotective potential in lin-ve stem cells in the retinal ischemia induced by pterygopalatine artery ligation and presents a practical model for validating therapies for ischemic disorders of the retina in future.
