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

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common complication of diabetes. DR is characterized by damage to retinal vasculature resulting in vision impairment and, if untreated, could eventually lead to blindness. The pathogenic mechanism of DR is complex; emerging studies suggest that premature senescence of retinal cells and subsequent secretion of inflammatory cytokines exacerbate DR disease state by stimulating paracrine senescence, pathological angiogenesis, and reparative vascular regeneration. Senolytics are a new class of drugs that can selectively clear out senescent cells from the retina, thus holding a significant promise in DR treatment and prevention. In this review, we discuss the critical role of cellular senescence in DR's pathogenesis; A literature review was conducted in September of 2021 to explore the therapeutic potential of senolytics in the treatment of DR. Studies that were relevant to the research topic were selected through multiple keyword searches in the search engine, PubMed and thoroughly reviewed using abstracts and full-text articles. We present evidence from animal models for studying cellular senescence in DR and discuss multiple pathogenic mechanisms in cellular senescence and its involvement in DR. We also discuss the current state of pharmaceutical development at preclinical and clinical stages focusing on the senolytic drugs navitoclax, 17-DMAG, piperlongumine, UBX-1325, dasatinib quercetin, and fisetin. In particular, UBX-1325 holds a promising prospect for DR treatment based on the positive outcome of early clinical studies in individuals with diabetic macular edema (DME) and wet age-related macular degeneration.
