Changes of plasma nitric oxide, endothelin-1, and blood coagulation following intravitreal conbercept.
Article in Scientific reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Intravitreal anti-VEGF (anti-vascular endothelial growth factor) biologics have revolutionized the pharmacological management of chorioretinal diseases. However, the systemic adverse events such as stroke or bleeding are the concerns for many patients and physicians. The mechanism to develop these side effects are poorly understood. Consecutive 95 patients with retinal diseases were studied for their blood activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), international normalized ratio (INR), and concentration of fibrinogen before and after intravitreal conbercept. Additionally, plasma nitric oxide (NO) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) were investigated on 38 of the 95 patients. Compared with the pre-injection, 4-week post-injection values of APTT and PT were increased by 0.582 s (p = 0.038, paired t test) and by 0.086 s (p = 0.080, paired t test; p = 0.0475, Sign test), respectively. At the same time, fibrinogen decreased by 0.048 g/L. Plasma levels of NO or ET-1 or VEGF did not significantly change from pre-injection levels. Our findings advanced the understanding of mechanism for systemic side effects associated with intravitreal anti-VEGF and emphasized paying more attention to higher risk of possible bleedings for patients following intravitreal conbercept.
