Effect of sevoflurane preconditioning on light-induced retinal damage in diabetic rats.
Article in Romanian journal of ophthalmology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Hyperglycemia and bright light are powerful stress agents that produce an enhanced retinal damage, when simultaneously acting on retina. Previous studies have shown that preconditioning with sevoflurane anesthesia offers a certain degree of protection to retinal cells against light damage. The objective of this study was to explore the effect of sevoflurane anesthetic preconditioning on a model of light-induced retinal degeneration in diabetic rats. Wistar rats that were randomly divided into four groups: control (rats exposed to photostress), group 1 (rats exposed to photostress and sevoflurane preconditioning), group 2 (diabetic rats exposed to photostress), group 3 (diabetic rats exposed to photostress and sevoflurane preconditioning) were used for this experiment. We recorded basal electroretinogram (ERG), at 36 h and 14 days after photostress and performed histological analysis of the retina. Results showed that sevoflurane has a protective effect on light-induced neuroretinal degeneration proved by significantly less variations of the ERG before and after photostress. Diabetes appears to increase the damaging effect of photostress on retina and attenuate the protection provided by sevoflurane preconditioning.
