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

Purpose: The effects of enolase dysfunction-mediated glycolytic attenuation on oxidative stress-induced retinal ganglion cell (RGC) death were investigated. Methods: Retinal expression of Enolase (ENO) 1 and 2 was detected using immunohistochemistry. Exogenous genes were introduced into mouse RGCs using viral vectors, and into the rat-derived retinal progenitor cell line R28 using lipofection. The effects of enolase dysfunction were evaluated using N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-induced RGC death and H2O2-induced death assays. Cell viability and gene expression were investigated using the alamarBlue, quantitative RT-PCR, and Western blotting, respectively. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) were detected using CM-H2DCFDA dye. 2-deoxyglucose and oligomycin were used to attenuate adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production in glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), respectively. Results: ENO1 and ENO2 were expressed in the RGCs. Enolase overexpression inhibited NMDA-induced mouse RGC death, whereas deficiency of ENO1 but not ENO2 enhanced cell death. Additionally, ENO1 overexpression prevented the CDKN2B-induced enhancement of RGC death. H2O2 treatment increased ENO1 expression in R28 cells and inhibited H2O2-induced cell death. ATP production was immediately enhanced in ENO1 wild-type cells treated with H2O2. 2-deoxyglucose and oligomycin prevented enhanced ATP production, but ATP levels were still higher than, or similar to, those in untreated wild-type cells; in contrast, in knockdown cells, oligomycin-mediated OXPHOS inhibition led to lower ATP production in H2O2-treatment than in untreated cells. H2O2 treatment increased ROS production in knockdown R28 cells. Conclusions: ENO1 dysfunction leads to glycolytic attenuation, resulting in an excessive dependence of ATP production on OXPHOS under oxidative stress, contributing to excitotoxicity-induced RGC death. Preventing glycolytic attenuation may represent a promising treatment for RGC degeneration.
