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 ophthalmic drug delivery is a challenge in the clinical treatment of ocular diseases. The traditional drug administration usually shows apparent limitations, such as the low bioavailability from the reason of low penetration of the cornea and the short survival time of drug in the eyes. To overcome these shortcomings, we propose an amphiphilic polymer micelle modified with hyaluronic acid (HA) for high efficient ophthalmic delivery of genistein, a widely used hydrophobic drug for treatment of ocular angiogenesis. The MPEG-b-PAE copolymer was synthesized by the Michael addition reaction, and the final drug carrier MPEG-b-PAE-g-HA was obtained by the process of esterification. Then, genistein was packaged in this drug carrier, getting the final micelles with size of about 84.5 nm. The cell viability tests showed that the micelles take no obvious cytotoxicity to the human cornea epithelium cells. The functionalities of drug slow release and cornea penetration ability were demonstrated in a series ex vivo experiments. Further, the vascular inhibition test illustrated that the micelles could significantly inhibit the angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. These results indicate that the constructed polymer has high feasibility to be used as drug carrier in the treatment of ocular diseases.
