Retinal Explant Culture from Mouse, Human, and Nonhuman Primates and Its Applications in Vision Research.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The retinal explant culture system is a valuable tool for studying the pharmacological, toxicological, and developmental aspects of the retina. It is also used for translational studies such as gene therapy. While no photoreceptor-like cell lines are available for in vitro studies of photoreceptor cell biology, the retinal explant culture maintains the laminated retinal structure ex vivo for as long as a month. Human and nonhuman primate (NHP) postmortem retinal explants cut into small pieces offer the possibility of testing multiple conditions for safety and adeno-associated viral (AAV) vector optimization. In addition, the cone-enriched foveal area can be studied using the retinal explants. Here, we present a detailed working protocol for retinal explant isolation and culture from mouse, human, and NHP for testing drug efficacy and AAV transduction. Future applications of this protocol include combining live imaging and multiwell retinal explant culture for high-throughput drug screening systems in rodent and human retinal explants to identify new drugs against retinal degeneration.
