MicroRNAs may provide new strategies in the treatment and diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy: Importance of VEGF.
Review in Iranian journal of basic medical sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is ocular microvascular complications of diabetes mellitus. Along with the increasing prevalence of diabetes worldwide, DR has come into the major cause of human blindness. Several studies have demonstrated the important roles of the expression alteration in the proteins contributed to vascular dysfunction during DR, especially vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). However, there is a need for further mechanistic research in this context to design new therapeutic and diagnostic programs. MicroRNAs (miRNAs, miRs) have been introduced as key controllers of gene expression in a variety of biological processes including differentiation, proliferation, and metabolism. Altered expression of miRNAs during DR development indicates a close relationship between these regulatory molecules and DR through regulating gene expressions. This review discusses and updates the functions of miRNA-dependent pathways and key roles of VEGF in the DR, which may increase our understanding and ability to target these small but important molecules to efficiently improve therapeutic and diagnostic approaches.
