Human Umbilical Tissue-Derived Cells Secrete Soluble VEGFR1 and Inhibit Choroidal Neovascularization.
Article in Molecular therapy. Methods & clinical development, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD), characterized by choroidal neovascularization (CNV), is the leading cause of irreversible blindness in developed countries. Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drugs are the standard treatment for AMD, but they have limitations. Cell therapy is a promising approach for ocular diseases, and it is being developed in the clinic for the treatment of retinal degeneration, including AMD. We previously showed that subretinal injection of human umbilical tissue-derived cells (hUTCs) in a rodent model of retinal degeneration preserved photoreceptors and visual function through rescue of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cell phagocytosis. Here we investigated the effect of hUTCs on a rat model of laser-induced CNV and on a human RPE cell line, ARPE-19, for VEGF production. We demonstrate that subretinal injection of hUTCs significantly inhibited CNV and lowered choroidal VEGF
