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 elucidate the molecular etiology of deepening of the upper eyelid sulcus (DUES) induced by prostaglandin (PG) analogs, a three-dimensional (3D) tissue culture system was employed using human orbital fibroblasts (HOFs). Methods: During adipogenesis, changes in HOF 3D organoid sizes, as well as their lipids stained by BODIPY and expression of the extracellular matrix (ECM) by immunolabeling and/or quantitative PCR, were studied in the presence or absence of either 100-nM bimatoprost acid or 100-nM prostaglandin F2α. Results: The size of the 3D organoids increased remarkably during adipogenesis, but such increases were significantly inhibited by the presence of PG analogs. Staining intensities by BODIPY and mRNA expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma were significantly increased upon adipogenesis but were not influenced by the presence of PG analogs. Unique changes in ECM expression observed with or without adipogenic differentiation were significantly modified by the presence of PG analogs. Conclusions: Our present study indicates that PG analogs have the potential to modulate the ECM network within HOF 3D organoids. Thus, a 3D tissue culture system may be a suitable strategy for understanding the disease etiology of DUES.
