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

Microglia is the resident immune cell in the retina, playing the role of immune surveillance in a traditional concept. With the heated focus on the mechanisms of microglia in pathological conditions, more and more functions of microglia have been discovered. Although the regulating role of microglia has been explored in ischemic retinopathy, little is known about its mechanisms in the different stages of the pathological process. Here, we removed microglia in the oxygen-induced retinopathy model by PLX5622 and revealed that the removal of activated microglia reduced pathological angiogenesis in the early stage after ischemic insult and alleviated the over-apoptosis of photoreceptors in the vessel remodeling phase. Our results indicated that microglia might play distinguished functions in the angiogenic and remodeling stages, and that the inhibition of microglia might be a promising target in the future treatment of ischemic retinopathy.
