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

Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and infantile aphakic glaucoma (IAG) are significant contributors of vision loss in adults and infants respectively. Both indications are associated with fibrosis of the trabecular meshwork (TM) that attenuates aqueous humor outflow, elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) and retinal ganglion cell (RGC) death. Transforming growth factor β2 (TGFβ2) is implicated in epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) in both POAG and IAG. A major regulator of TGFβ2 is decorin, a proteoglycan whose expression is reduced in glaucoma patients. In this study we demonstrate highly efficient infection of the murine anterior chamber including ciliary body, corneal stroma, TM and corneal nerves using the adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector AAV-IKV. Intracameral injection of AAV-IKV expressing a constitutively active TGFβ2 (AAV-IKV-TGFβ2
