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

Gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, including the retina, and play an important role in both regulating neurogenesis and neural stem cell proliferation. GABAa receptor has been identified in the retina, however, the function of GABAa receptor on retinal progenitor cell (RPC) is unclear. RPCs were cultured to analyze changes in cell proliferation and cell cycle distribution after GABAa receptor activation. The activation of GABAa receptor significantly inhibits RPCs proliferation, cell cycle progress, and self-renewal. Moreover, the activation of GABAa receptor leads to the up-expression of p21 and p27 and down-expression of Nestin, Pax6, Sox2, and Chx10. These results suggest that GABA acts as a negative regulator of RPCs proliferation and self-renewal.
