Modulation of Corneal FAK/PI3K/Akt Signaling Expression and of Metalloproteinase-2 and Metalloproteinase-9 during the Development of Herpes Simplex Keratitis.
Article in BioMed research international, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
To observe the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 and of the FAK/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in HSK. Fifty BALB/c mice were infected to establish the model and killed on days 0, 2, 7, 14, and 28. The cornea samples were prepared, respectively. Slit lamp examination, immunofluorescence staining, reverse transcription PCR, and Western blot were used to detect the index. After HSV-1 infection, different degrees of epithelial or stromal damage and corneal opacity were observed. Immunofluorescence staining showed that the expressions of MMP-2 and MMP-9 at different levels of corneal tissue were observed on the 0d, 2d, 7d, 14d, and 28d. Compared with 0d, the relative expression levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 mRNA at 2d, 7d, 14d, and 28d were significantly increased (all P< 0.05). Compared with 14d, the relative expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 mRNA decreased on the 2d, 7d, and 28d (all P< 0.05). Western blot showed that the protein expressions of p-FAK, p-PI3K, p-Akt, MMP-2, and MMP-9 at 2d, 14d, and 28d were all significantly higher than 0d (all P< 0.05). At 14 d, the expressions of p-FAK, p-PI3K, p-Akt, and MMP-2 were significantly higher than those at 2d, 7d, and 28d (all P< 0.05). The protein expression of FAK, PI3K, and Akt in corneal of mice in each time period had no significant (all P> 0.05). These data suggest that FAK/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and MMP-2 and MMP-9 may be involved in the development of HSK.
