Studying macrophage activation in immune-privileged lens through CSF-1 protein intravitreal injection in mouse model.
Article in STAR protocols, 2022. 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
Macrophage (MΦ) activation and promotion of fibrosis are critical processes in lens capsule healing after injury. Here, we detail a protocol that induces MΦ2 formation within the vitreous body of the eye. Our procedure combines the use of an intravitreal injection of a growth factor (CSF-1) and immunofluorescence to confirm the presence of MΦ2 and fibrotic tissue formation. This protocol allows assessment of the distribution of macrophages and quantification of fibrotic tissue formation/sealing within the vitreous body of mouse eyes. For complete details on the use and execution of this profile, please refer to Li et al. (2021), Gerhardt et al. (2003), Kubota et al. (2009).
