Treatment with interleukin-33 is non-toxic and protects retinal pigment epithelium in an ageing model of outer retinal degeneration.
Article in Journal of cellular and molecular medicine, 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
The leading cause of central vision loss, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), is a degenerative disorder characterized by atrophy of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and photoreceptors. For 15% of cases, neovascularization occurs, leading to acute vision loss if left untreated. For the remaining patients, there are currently no treatment options and preventing progressive RPE atrophy remains the main therapeutic goal. Previously, we have shown treatment with interleukin-33 can reduce choroidal neovascularization and attenuate tissue remodelling. Here, we investigate IL-33 delivery in aged, high-fat diet (HFD) fed mice on a wildtype and complement factor H heterozygous knockout background. We characterize the non-toxic effect following intravitreal injection of IL-33 and further demonstrate protective effects against RPE cell death with evidence of maintaining metabolic retinal homeostasis of Cfh+/-~HFD mice. Our results further support the potential utility of IL-33 to prevent AMD progression.
