Cabozantinib, a Multityrosine Kinase Inhibitor of MET and VEGF Receptors Which Suppresses Mouse Laser-Induced Choroidal Neovascularization.
Article in Journal of ophthalmology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is a leading cause of blindness in the elderly in developed countries and is particularly associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Cabozantinib (CBZ) hinders the activation of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases involved in tumor angiogenesis, such as hepatocyte growth factor receptor (MET) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2). We aimed to investigate the role and mechanism of CBZ in a mouse laser-induced CNV model. In zebrafish embryos, CBZ perturbed intersegmental vessel (ISV) formation without obvious neurodevelopment impairment. In the mouse laser-induced CNV model, phosphorylated hepatocyte growth factor receptor (p-MET) and phosphorylated vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (p-VEGFR2) were increased in the CNV region. CBZ intravitreal injection or oral gavage alleviated CNV leakage and the CNV lesion area without obvious intraocular toxicity, as well as disturbed the phosphorylation of MET and VEGFR2. Additionally, CBZ downregulated the expression of the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) with no effect on the expression of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). CBZ downregulated HGF, p-MET, and p-VEGFR2 expressions
