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

Aberrant angiogenesis lies at the heart of a wide range of ocular pathologies such as proliferative diabetic retinopathy, wet age-related macular degeneration and retinopathy of prematurity. This study explores the anti-angiogenic activity of a novel small molecule investigative compound capable of inhibiting profilin1-actin interaction recently identified by our group. We demonstrate that our compound is capable of inhibiting migration, proliferation and angiogenic activity of microvascular endothelial cells in vitro as well as choroidal neovascularization (CNV) ex vivo. In mouse model of laser-injury induced CNV, intravitreal administration of this compound diminishes sub-retinal neovascularization. Finally, our preliminary structure-activity relationship study (SAR) demonstrates that this small molecule compound is amenable to improvement in biological activity through structural modifications.
