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

Maintaining the clarity of the cornea is essential for vision, and is achieved through an exquisite array of collagen fibrils and proteoglycans in the corneal stroma. Alterations in the identity and modifications of the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are seen both throughout the normal wound healing process and in pathological conditions resulting in corneal opacity. Understanding these changes has been essential for the development of corneal prostheses and corneal reconstruction. The goal of this review article is to summarize and consolidate research in the alterations seen in glycosaminoglycans in injured and hypoxic states, address the role of proteins that can regulate glycosaminoglycans in the corneal wound healing process, and apply these findings to the context of corneal restoration through reconstruction or the insertion of synthetic devices.
