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

backgroundHigh myopia (HM) is a progressive ocular condition characterized by excessive axial elongation and severe refractive errors, often leading to sight-threatening complications. The underlying pathological driver of HM is the weakening of scleral biomechanics, making the sclera a key therapeutic target. While posterior scleral reinforcement (PSR) has been established as an effective intervention to strengthen the sclera, currently available PSR materials often fail to fully meet clinical demands.

resultsInspired by the electric eel, which generates surface electrolytes to facilitate electric discharge and influence interactions with its surroundings, we developed a biomimetic piezoelectric patch (BPP@PVDF) for HM treatment. This patch integrates a bovine pericardium (BPP) scaffold with a piezoelectric polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film, endowing the BPP with electrical properties and improved cell adhesion. Through electrical activation, the BPP enhances scleral mechanical strength and promotes collagen synthesis, effectively mitigating axial elongation in myopia.

conclusionsBoth in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that our precisely designed patch provided a stable and effective solution for reducing progressive axial elongation in HM. By leveraging nanotechnology, electrical stimulation, and scleral reinforcement surgery, this study offers a groundbreaking approach with significant implications for both scientific research and clinical practice. Our strategy paves the way for enhanced surgical outcomes in HM treatment, offering a promising avenue for future therapeutic advancements.
