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

Blood vessels in the developing retina are formed in concert with neural growth, resulting in functional neurovascular network. Disruption of the neurovascular coordination contributes to the pathogenesis of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), a potentially blinding retinal neovascular disease in preterm infants that currently lacks an approved drug therapy in the USA. Despite vasculopathy as predominant clinical manifestations, an increasing number of studies revealed complex neurovascular interplays among neurons, glial cells and blood vessels during ROP. Coordinated expression of glia-derived vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in spatio-temporal gradients is pivotal to the formation of well-organized vascular plexuses in the healthy retina, whereas uncoordinated VEGF expression triggers pathological angiogenesis with disorganized vascular tufts in ROP. In contrast with VEGF driving both pathological and physiological angiogenesis, neuron-derived angiogenic factor secretogranin III (Scg3) stringently regulates ROP but not healthy retinal vessels in animal models. Anti-VEGF and anti-Scg3 therapies confer similar high efficacies to alleviate ROP in preclinical studies but are distinct in their disease selectivity and safety. This review discusses neurovascular communication among retinal blood vessels, neurons and glial cells during retinal development and ROP pathogenesis and summarizes the current and emerging therapies to address unmet clinical needs for the disease.
