Postnatal hyperglycemia alters amino acid profile in retinas (model of Phase I ROP).
Article in iScience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Nutritional deprivation occurring in most preterm infants postnatally can induce hyperglycemia, a significant and independent risk factor for suppressing physiological retinal vascularization (Phase I retinopathy of prematurity (ROP)), leading to compensatory but pathological neovascularization. Amino acid supplementation reduces retinal neovascularization in mice. Little is known about amino acid contribution to Phase I ROP. In mice modeling hyperglycemia-associated Phase I ROP, we found significant changes in retinal amino acids (including most decreased L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine). Parenteral L-isoleucine suppressed physiological retinal vascularization. In premature infants, severe ROP was associated with a higher mean intake of parenteral versus enteral amino acids in the first two weeks of life after adjustment for treatment group, gestational age at birth, birth weight, and sex. The number of days with parenteral amino acids support independently predicted severe ROP. Further understanding and modulating amino acids may help improve nutritional intervention and prevent Phase I ROP.
