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

Myopia, one of the most prevalent ocular diseases worldwide, is projected to affect nearly half of the global population by 2050. The main cause of myopia in most patients is axial myopia, which primarily occurs due to the elongation of the eyeball, driven by changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of scleral cells. Previous studies have shown that NLRP3, an important inflammatory mediator, plays a critical role in regulating the expression of MMP-2 in the sclera. This, in turn, leads to a decrease in the expression of Collagen-1, a major component of the scleral ECM, triggering the remodeling of the scleral ECM. This study aimed to investigate the effect of MCC950, an inhibitor of NLRP3, on the progression of myopia using a mouse form-deprivation myopia (FDM) model. The FDM mouse model was constructed by subjecting three-week-old C57BL/6J mice to form-deprivation. The mice were divided into experimental (
