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

In humans, retinal-neuron death, optic-nerve injuries, and associated neurodegenerative diseases, such as glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration, often lead to permanent vision loss. While the capacity for regeneration is low in the human nervous system, including the retina, some non-mammalian vertebrate species, including zebrafish, are capable of endogenous neuronal regeneration after injury. Unlike mammals, zebrafish do not form a scar that inhibits axonal and neuronal regeneration after injury. Rather, they harbor neural progenitor and stem-cell populations allowing regeneration of entire parts of the nervous system and restoration of tissue integrity and function. In the zebrafish retina, cycling neural progenitor cells of the ciliary marginal zone and quiescent resident neural stem cells (the latter of which are also called Müller glial cells) participate in neuronal regeneration following different types of injury. In this study, we report the identification of a novel, additional cellular source participating in neuronal regeneration of neurons in the zebrafish retina after genetic ablation of retinal ganglion cells. Before injury, these progenitor cells express molecular markers of neural-crest-cell and/or fibroblast identity, such as
