The Expression of Calcium Sensing Receptor in Normal and Diabetic Rat Eyes.

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
BACKGROUND Calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) is widely expressed in many tissues of the body, but it is rarely reported to be expressed in the eyes. This research explored the expression and distribution of CaSR in eye tissues of normal and diabetic rats. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into a diabetic and a normal group. Diabetes mellitus (DM) models were successfully established by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. The expression and distribution of CaSR in the rat eyeballs were detected by immunohistochemistry. Quantitative RT-PCR and western blotting were used to detect the presence of CaSR in normal and diabetic rats. RESULTS CaSR was detected in the cornea, lens epithelium, and retina. CaSR was expressed the most in the cornea, followed by the lens epithelium, and the retina (p<0.05). The expression of CaSR was decreased in the eye tissue of diabetic rats (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS In this study, CaSR was detected in rat cornea, lens, and retina. It was significantly decreased in the eyes of diabetic rats. This indicated that the downregulated expression of CaSR was associated with diabetic oculopathy.
