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

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in the elderly. Dry AMD is characterized by a progressive macular degeneration of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and photoreceptors, and the RPE oxidative damage/dystrophy is at the core of the disease. Recent population/patients-based studies have shown an association of high free serum thyroid hormone (TH) levels with increased risk of AMD. This work investigated the effects of TH signaling inhibition on RPE and photoreceptor damage/cell death in an oxidative stress-induced mouse model of AMD. TH signaling inhibition was achieved by anti-thyroid drug treatment and oxidative stress was induced by sodium iodate (NaIO
