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

Background Mitochondria are essential cellular organelles that are responsible for oxidative stress-induced damage in age-dependent neurodegenerations such as glaucoma. Previous studies have linked mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations to cellular energy shortages that result in eye degeneration. Methodology To look for nucleotide variations in mtDNA in exfoliation syndrome/glaucoma (XFS/XFG), we performed a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify the entire coding region of the mitochondrial genome from peripheral blood of XFS/XFG (n = 25) patients and controls (n = 25). Results This study identified a total of 65 variations in XFS/XFG patients, of which 25 (38%) variations were non-synonymous single-nucleotide polymorphism (nsSNPs). Out of 25 nsSNPs, seven (five nsSNP in
