Function-first ligandomics for ocular vascular research and drug target discovery.
Article in Experimental eye research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Human eyes may develop different vascular diseases with neovascularization and/or leakage, including wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic macular edema (DME), proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), retinopathy of prematurity, corneal neovascularization and intraocular tumors. A breakthrough in therapy is the advent and approval of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors. However, anti-VEGF drugs not only have limited efficacy to treat AMD, DME and PDR but also are not approved for other ocular indications. The key to addressing these unmet clinical needs is to develop novel therapies against VEGF-independent angiogenic factors or signaling pathways for alternative or combination therapy. We recently developed the first paradigm of ligandomics for global mapping of cell-wide ligands as well as disease-selective ligands. Therapies targeting disease-selective angiogenic or vascular leakage factors likely have high efficacy, minimal side effects, wide therapeutic windows and relatively low drug attrition rates. A critical challenge is how to distinguish between genuine drug targets and spurious hits identified by high-throughput ligandomics. Here we exploited the unique advantages of the eye and extracellular ligands by combining ligandomics with "function-first" and/or "therapy-first" analyses to efficiently characterize functional activity, disease selectivity, pathogenic role and therapeutic potential of identified ligands. The innovative function- or therapy-first ligandomics will systematically and reliably delineate disease-selective angiogenic or vascular leakage factors and markedly facilitate ocular vascular research and ligand-guided targeted anti-angiogenic therapy.
