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

Myopia is the most common eye disorder in the world which is caused by a mismatch between the optical power of the eye and its excessively long axial length. Recent studies revealed that the regulation of the axial length of the eye occurs via a complex signaling cascade, which originates in the retina and propagates across all ocular tissues to the sclera. The complexity of this regulatory cascade has made it particularly difficult to develop effective antimyopia drugs. The current pharmacological treatment options for myopia are limited to atropine and 7-methylxanthine, which have either significant adverse effects or low efficacy. In this review, we focus on the recent advances in genome-wide studies of the signaling pathways underlying myopia development and discuss the potential of systems genetics and pharmacogenomic approaches for the development of antimyopia drugs.
