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

Rhodopsin is the light receptor required for the function and health of photoreceptor cells. Mutations in rhodopsin can cause misfolding and aggregation of the receptor, which leads to retinal degeneration. Bovine rhodopsin is often used as a model to understand the effect of pathogenic mutations in rhodopsin due to the abundance of structural information on the bovine form of the receptor. It is unclear whether or not the bovine rhodopsin template is adequate in predicting the effect of these mutations occurring in human retinal disease or in predicting the efficacy of therapeutic strategies. To better understand the extent to which bovine rhodopsin can serve as a model, human and bovine P23H rhodopsin mutants expressed heterologously in cells were examined. The aggregation properties and cellular localization of the mutant receptors were determined by Förster resonance energy transfer and confocal microscopy. The potential therapeutic effects of the pharmacological compounds 9-
