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

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is a steroid-resistant glomerular disease characterized by foot process flattening and heavy proteinuria. A similar disease was found to occur spontaneously in mice in which the Mpv17 gene was inactivated by retroviral insertion (Mpv17-/- mice). Here evidence is provided that glomerular damage in this murine model is due to overproduction of oxygen radicals and accumulation of lipid peroxidation adducts that were found in isolated glomeruli of Mpv17-/- mice. The development of glomerular disease in Mpv17-/- mice was inhibited by scavengers of oxygen radicals (dithiomethylurea) and lipid peroxidation (probucol), but not by steroid treatment. Although the glomerular polyanion was greatly reduced in proteinuric Mpv17-/- mice, it was preserved by antioxidative therapy. These results indicate that the glomerular disease in Mpv17-/- mice qualifies as a model of steroid-resistant focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and that experimental therapies with scavengers of oxygen radicals and lipid peroxidation efficiently ameliorate glomerular damage.
