Topical ophthalmic administration of the antiangiogenic peptide VIAN-c4551 protects against experimental diabetic macular edema.

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
Increased angiogenesis and vascular permeability are hallmarks of microvascular retinal diseases such as diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema (DME). Periodic intravitreal injections of inhibitors of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are first-line therapy, but their invasiveness and associated risks often lead to poor compliance and outcomes. Here, we investigate VIAN-c4551, a highly potent antiangiogenic cyclic heptapeptide, as a non-invasive topical ophthalmic alternative to the current standard of care for DME. VIAN-c4551 demonstrated high potency (IC
