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

The aim of this study is to test the permeation of human recombinant erythropoietin (rHuEPO) across conjunctiva, cornea, and sclera in an ex vivo model. Thirty fresh pig eyes were collected from a slaughterhouse. Conjunctivas (n = 10), corneas (n = 10), and scleras (n = 10) were surgically dissected from surrounding tissues. Ocular membranes were placed into Franz diffusion cells and rHuEPO was administered into the donor phase of each cell, except for control samples. Samples were collected from the receptor phase at seven time points, from 30 min to 6 h of incubation. Erythropoietin (EPO) was quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technique. Ocular membranes immunohistochemistry was also performed at the end of the study. EPO was detected in all test samples. After 6 h of incubation, conjunctiva was the most permeable membrane to rHuEPO (509.3 ± 89.8 mIU/cm
