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

Mouse models are valuable tools in studying lens biology and biochemistry, and the Cre-loxP system is the most used technology for gene targeting in the lens. However, numerous genes are indispensable in lens development. The conventional knockout method either prevents lens formation or causes simultaneous cataract formation, hindering the studies of their roles in lens structure, growth, metabolism, and cataractogenesis during lens aging. An inducible Cre-loxP mouse line is an excellent way to achieve such a purpose. We established a lens-specific Cre ERT2 knock-in mouse (LCEK), an inducible mouse model for lens-specific gene targeting in a spatiotemporal manner. LCEK mice were created by in-frame infusion of a P2A-CreER
