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

introductionDiabetic retinopathy (DR) is the leading cause of blindness among the working population in the USA. Current therapies, including anti-vascular endothelial growth factor treatments, cannot completely reverse the visual defects induced by DR. MicroRNA-150 (miR-150) is a regulator that suppresses inflammation and pathological angiogenesis. In patients with diabetes, miR-150 is downregulated. As chronic inflammation is a major contributor to the pathogenesis of DR, whether diabetes-associated decrease of miR-150 is merely associated with the disease progression or decreased miR-150 causes retinal inflammation and pathological angiogenesis is still unknown. RESEARCH DESIGN AND

methodsWe used high-fat diet (HFD)-induced type 2 diabetes (T2D) in wild type (WT) and miR-150 knockout (miR-150

resultsWe found that WT mice fed with an HFD for only 1 month had a significant decrease of miR-150 in the blood and retina, and retinal light sensitivity also decreased. The miR-150

conclusionThese data suggest that decreased miR-150 caused by obesity or diabetic insults is not merely correlated to the disease progression, but it contributes to the retinal dysfunction and inflammation, as well as the development of DR.
