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

Background: Resveratrol is a natural polyphenolic compound that shows great potential in neuroprotection, anti-inflammation,and antioxidation. Previous studies have demonstrated that resveratrol can effectively treat various animal models of retinal diseases. Purpose: The aim of the research was to use an animal experimental model to assess the effectiveness of resveratrol in treating retinal-related diseases in various animal models of retinal diseases such as ischemia-reperfusion injury, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, chronic ocular hypertension, optic neuritis, age-related macular degeneration, and retinopathy of prematurity. Furthermore, this study aims to reveal the underlying mechanisms of resveratrol related to the treatment of retina-related diseases. Methods: A search was conducted across several databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Web of Science, and OVID. The search time was from the establishment of the database to October 2024 to collect studies on resveratrol intervention in animal models of retinal diseases. The studies included in this paper adopted the SYRCLE's risk of bias tool. Stata 16.0 and RevMan 5.4 software were used to analyze and visualize the results. Results: Our meta-analysis comprises 26 studies and 365 animals demonstrates the following effects of resveratrol compared to the control group: a significant increase in the number of retinal ganglion cells (SMD = 3.91, 95% Cl = [2.97, 4.86], Conclusion: Resveratrol has neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects through multiple mechanisms, thereby reducing retinal damage and maintaining the structure and function of the retina. This provides preclinical support for its possible therapeutic uses in the management of retinal diseases. Systematic Review Registration: https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/myprospero.
