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

Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), a leading cause of irreversible vision loss, presents with increased prevalence and a higher degree of clinical severity in the world. Growing evidence has shown that ncRNAs are involved in the fibrotic process, which is thought to be the proegumenal cause of POAG. Here, we screened out a differentially expressed circRNA (named circHBEGF) in human trabecular meshwork cells (HTMCs) under oxidative stress, which is spliced from pre-HBEGF. circHBEGF promotes the expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) genes (fibronectin and collagen I). Further studies revealed that circHBEGF could competitively bind to miR-646 as a miRNA sponge to regulate EGFR expression in HTMCs. Importantly, HBEGF can also activate EGF signaling pathways, through which can transcriptionally activate ECM genes in HTMCs. In summary, this study investigates the functions and molecular mechanisms of oxidative stress-induced circHBEGF in the regulation of ECM production in HTMCs through the miR646/EGFR pathway. These findings further elucidate the pathogenic mechanism and may identify novel targets for the molecular therapy of POAG.
