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

purposeResveratrol (RSV) is a natural polyphenol phytoalexin compound and has long been considered to possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. In order to exploit the protective potential of RSV in anterior segment diseases, we investigated the possible cytotoxic, genotoxic/antigenotoxic effects of human limbal explant cultures to RSV and MMC or H2O2 alone and in combination.

methodsA total of 18 limbal explant tissues obtained from three corneal donors were placed on the 12 well tissue culture polystyrene plates and cultured for 14 days. Cell growth from limbal explants was observed by inverted phase contrast microscopy. The cytotoxic effects of RSV was studied by neutral red uptake assay. For the assessment of the genotoxic and antigenotoxic effects, basic alkaline technique of comet assay was performed.

resultsIt was found that the concentrations of RSV up to 100 μM did not significantly affect the viability of outgrowth cells of limbal explant during 24 h exposure. When compared to negative control, all concentrations of RSV alone caused an increase in DNA strand breakage. Interestingly, 10 μg/mL MMC alone caused similar tail intensity and tail moment values with RSV alone. On the other hand, RSV treatment in all doses seemed to decrease the DNA damage induced by either H2O2 or MMC.

conclusionRSV is an attractive natural compound for the purpose of oxidative stress reduction in ocular surface and can be utilized as a supplement to promote ocular surface regeneration in vivo.
