Microvesicle delivery of a lysosomal transport protein to ex vivo rabbit cornea.
Article in Molecular genetics and metabolism reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Therapeutic use of transmembrane proteins is limited because of irreversible denaturation when away from their native lipid membrane. Mutations in lysosomal membrane transport proteins cause many lethal disorders including cystinosis which results from mutations in CTNS, which codes for the lysosomal cystine transport protein, cystinosin. Cystinosin-deficient fibroblasts, including keratocytes (corneal fibroblasts) accumulate lysosomal cystine. Cystinosis patients develop highly painful corneal cystine crystals, resulting in severe visually debilitating photophobia. The only available therapy is daily treatment with cysteamine eye drops. We have previously shown that microvesicles containing functional cystinosin are spontaneously produced by infecting
