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

Purpose: To observe the similarities and differences between herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV)-induced viral anterior uveitis (VAU), both in vitro and in vivo. Methods: Primary rat trabecular meshwork cells (RTMCs) were infected by HSV-1 or MCMV to clarify the pattern of virus replication and the effect on cells. In vivo, intracameral injection of HSV-1 or MCMV was performed to establish the VAU rat models. The clinical manifestation, intraocular pressure (IOP), histological characteristics, ultrastructural changes, and the expression of inflammatory cytokines in the anterior segment were observed and compared between these two types of VAU models. Results: Both viruses could infect the RTMCs but HSV-1 exhibited an earlier and greater cytopathic effect in vitro. In vivo, both VAU rats showed typical acute VAU signs, and the IOP elevation seemed to be correlated with the inflammatory progression. Histopathological findings and ultrastructural changes revealed tissue damage and cell infiltration in the anterior chamber angle. In both models, similar proinflammatory cytokines were upregulated. HSV-1 and MCMV viral particles were identified under transmission electron microscopy. Conclusions: HSV-1 and MCMV infection share certain similarities but have significant differences both in vitro and in vivo. HSV-1 usually has a stronger anterior segment inflammation with a longer duration compared with MCMV in VAU models. Our results provided a valuable animal model for investigating pathogenesis and exploring therapeutic strategies for clinical VAU.
