Knockdown of lncRNA PVT1 protects human trabecular meshwork cells against H
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Purpose: Human trabecular meshwork cell (HTMC) dysfunction results in imbalanced aqueous humor inflow and outflow, leading to an increase in intraocular pressure (IOP). Uncontrolled high IOP can promote the occurrence of glaucoma, an irreversible optic neuropathy. Here, we explored whether the long non-coding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (lncRNA PVT1)/microRNA-29a-3p (miR-29a-3p) axis could ameliorate HTMC dysfunction under oxidative stress by modulating the expression of the proangiogenic factor vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGFA) and the profibrotic factor metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2). Methods: HTMCs were cultured under H Results: In HTMCs, the expression of lncRNA PVT1 was induced by H Conclusion: LncRNA PVT1 has potential as a therapeutic target for inhibiting VEGFA and MMP-2, thus protecting HTMCs, suppressing the progression of fibrosis, and, consequently, improving the outcome of glaucoma filtration surgery.
