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

Purpose: To identify processes that contribute to corticosteroid-induced ocular hypertension and candidate target genes for treatment. Methods: A systematic search identified five human microarray datasets investigating the effect of dexamethasone versus a control medium on trabecular meshwork (TM) tissue. After thorough quality control, samples of low quality were removed, and the datasets were integrated. Additionally, a bovine RNA-sequencing dataset allowed to investigate differences in gene expression profiling between cows with and without corticosteroid-induced ocular hypertension (responders vs. nonresponders). The obtained datasets were used as input for parallel pathway analyses. Significantly changed pathways were clustered into functional categories and the results were further investigated. A network visualizing the differences between the responders and nonresponders was created. Results: Seven functional pathway clusters were found to be significantly changed in TM cells exposed to dexamethasone versus a control medium and in TM cells of responders versus nonresponders: collagen, extracellular matrix, adhesion, WNT-signaling, inflammation, adipogenesis, and glucose metabolism. In addition, cell cycle and senescence were only significantly changed in responders versus nonresponders. The network of the differential gene expression between responders and nonresponders shows many connections between the identified processes via shared genes. Conclusions: Nine functional pathway clusters synthesize the molecular response to dexamethasone exposure in TM cells and are likely to be involved in the pathogenesis of corticosteroid-induced ocular hypertension.
