CXC- receptor 2 promotes extracellular matrix production and attenuates migration in peripapillary human scleral fibroblasts under mechanical strain.
Article in Journal of cellular and molecular medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
As the main loading-bearing tissue of eye, sclera exerts an important role in the pathophysiology of glaucoma. Intraocular pressure (IOP) generates mechanical strain on sclera. Recent studies have demonstrated that sclera, especially the peripapillary sclera, undergoes complicated remodelling under the mechanical strain. However, the mechanisms of the hypertensive scleral remodelling in human eyes remained uncertain. In this study, peripapillary human scleral fibroblasts (ppHSFs) were applied cyclic mechanical strain by Flexcell-5000™ tension system. We found that CXC- ligands and CXCR2 were differentially expressed after strain. Increased cell proliferation and inhibited cell motility were observed when CXCR2 was upregulated under the strain, whereas cell proliferation and motility did not have a significant change when CXCR2 was knocked down. CXCR2 could facilitate cell proliferation ability, modulate the mRNA and protein expressions of type I collagen and matrix metalloproteinase 2 via JAK1/2-STAT3 signalling pathway. In addition, CXCR2 might inhibit cell migration via FAK/MLC
