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

Neovascularization is a prominent cause of irreversible blindness in a variety of ocular diseases. Current therapies for pathological neovascularization are concentrated on the suppression of vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF). Despite the remarkable efficacy of anti-VEGF drugs, several problems still exist, including ocular complications and drug resistance. Thus, it is still required to design novel drugs for anti-angiogenic treatment. This study aimed to investigate the anti-angiogenic effects of a small molecule multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor, DCZ19931, on ocular neovascularization. The results showed that administration of DCZ19931 at the tested concentrations did not cause obvious cytotoxicity and tissue toxicity. DCZ19931 could reduce the size of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) lesions in laser-induced CNV model and suppress ocular neovascularization in oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) model. DCZ19931 could suppress VEGF-induced proliferation, migration, and tube formation ability of endothelial cells, exhibiting similar anti-angiogenic effects as Ranibizumab. DCZ19931 could reduce the levels of intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression in vivo and in vitro. Network pharmacology prediction and western blots revealed that DCZ19931 exerted its anti-angiogenic effects through the inactivation of ERK1/2-MAPK signaling and p38-MAPK signaling. In conclusion, this study indicates that DCZ19931 is a promising drug for anti-angiogenic therapy for ocular diseases.
