Progress on the application of growth factor-related drugs in ophthalmology.

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
Vascular endothelial growth factor（VEGF）, fibroblast growth factor（FGF）, nerve growth factor（NGF）, epidermal growth factor and interferon are important endogenous proteins that regulate cell proliferation, differentiation and regeneration. Biological products targeting growth factors are used in the treatment of ocular diseases such as wet age-related macular degeneration, corneal injury and neurotrophic keratitis. Anti-VEGF drugs can regulate the proliferation of vascular endothelia, reduce the edema and exudation of retinal tissue，which are the main therapeutic agents for wet age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. The basic FGF (b-FGF) can promote the proliferation, differentiation, and migration of corneal epithelial cells, accelerating the healing of the corneal injury and reduces corneal inflammation；and bovine b-FGF has been approved for the treatment of corneal injuries. The NGF promotes the growth, development, and differentiation of central and peripheral neurons, thus accelerating the repair of nerve damage；and the European Medicines Agency approved the use of nerve growth factor for the treatment of neurotrophic keratitis in 2017. Recent clinical studies show that patients with moderate or severe neurotrophic keratitis achieved complete corneal healing following 8 weeks of NGF therapy. Epidermal growth factor derivative eye drops have been approved for the treatment of corneal epithelial injuries. Recombinant human interferon has been clinically used in the treatment of ocular viral infections. This article reviews the research progress in the development of new cell growth factor drugs for the treatment of ophthalmic diseases, to provide insights for expanding the application of cell growth factors in ophthalmology.
