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

Organotypic retinal explants are routinely used as alternatives to in vitro cell culture and to replace the use of animals in modelling retinal neurodegenerative diseases. Retinal explants fill the gap between in vivo which are expensive, time consuming, and complex due to inaccessibility of target tissues. However, organotypic retinal explants are less expensive and rapid and retinal cell types in the explant maintain their morphologic interactions with other cells in the retina. Therefore, retinal explants have high potential to be used as tools to assess the pharmacological and other therapies prior to in vivo validation, reducing the use of live animals.
