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

The interphotoreceptor matrix (IPM) is the extracellular matrix between the photoreceptors and the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). The IPM has two proteoglycans: the IPM proteoglycans 1 and 2 (IMPG1 and IMPG2, respectively). Patients with mutations on IMPG2 develop subretinal vitelliform lesions that affect vision. We previously created an IMPG2 knockout (KO) mice model that generates subretinal lesions similar to those found in humans. These subretinal lesions in IMPG2 KO mice retinas are, in part, composed of mislocalized IMPG1. In addition, IMPG2 KO mice show microscopic IMPG1 material accumulation between the RPE and the photoreceptor outer segments. In this work we discuss the possibility that material accumulation on IMPG2 KO mice retinas affects photoreceptor metabolism. To further investigate this idea, we used targeted metabolomics to profile retinal metabolome on IMPG2 KO mice. The metabolite set enrichment analysis showed reduced glutamate metabolism, urea cycle, and galactose metabolism suggesting affected energy metabolism in mice retinas of IMPG2 KO mice with subretinal lesion.
