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

Retinal degenerative diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and retinitis pigmentosa (RP), are major causes of blindness worldwide. Humans cannot regenerate retina, however, axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum), a laboratory-bred salamander, can regenerate retinal tissue throughout adulthood. Classic signaling pathways, including fibroblast growth factor (FGF), are involved in axolotl regeneration. Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) interaction with FGF is required for signal transduction in this pathway. GAGs are anionic polysaccharides in extracellular matrix (ECM) that have been implicated in limb and lens regeneration of amphibians, however, GAGs have not been investigated in the context of retinal regeneration. GAG composition is characterized native and decellularized axolotl and porcine retina using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry. Pig was used as a mammalian vertebrate model without the ability to regenerate retina. Chondroitin sulfate (CS) was the main retinal GAG, followed by heparan sulfate (HS), hyaluronic acid, and keratan sulfate in both native and decellularized axolotl and porcine retina. Axolotl retina exhibited a distinctive GAG composition pattern in comparison with porcine retina, including a higher content of hyaluronic acid. In CS, higher levels of 4- and 6- O-sulfation were observed in axolotl retina. The HS composition was greater in decellularized tissues in both axolotl and porcine retina by 7.1% and 15.4%, respectively, and different sulfation patterns were detected in axolotl. Our findings suggest a distinctive GAG composition profile of the axolotl retina set foundation for role of GAGs in homeostatic and regenerative conditions of the axolotl retina and may further our understanding of retinal regenerative models.
