Arsenic trioxide inhibits proliferation of retinal pigment epithelium by downregulating expression of extracellular matrix and p27.

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
The present study aimed to investigate the effect of arsenic trioxide (ATO) on the proliferation of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and its mechanism. RPE cells were cultivated with 0.5-11 μmol/L ATO for 24, 48, and 72 h and their survival and growth were measured by MTT assay. The expression of p27 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in RPE cells was detected using cell immunofluorescence and western blotting. Dose-dependency was evident in both the experimental and control groups. The 50% inhibitory concentration was obtained at a concentration of 6 mol/L with cells treated for 3 days. The optimum concentration of ATO was 6 μmol/L based on the result of MTT. After the third day of ATO treatment, the number of cells was significantly lower in the experimental group compared with the control group. The expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) components decreased relative to the control group. The expression of p27 and PCNA declined gradually in cells treated for 72 h at 6 μmol/L ATO compared with the control group. The difference between the experimental and control groups was significant (
