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

FUBI (failure of ureteric bud invasion) is a highly inbred strain of mouse with a high spontaneous incidence of uni- or bilateral renal agenesis (60%). Bilateral renal agenesis is lethal within 2 days after birth. The primary defect of FUBI is failure of the ureteric bud to penetrate into the metanephric mesenchyme at around embryonic day 11, resulting in apoptosis of metanephric cells and leading to renal agenesis on the affected side. The metanephros seemed to be normal because co-culturing of the FUBI metanephros with homologous spinal cord induced differentiation of the rudiment, but co-culturing with the homologous ureteric bud frequently did not. Genetic analysis revealed that more than two genes were involved in this malformation and we mapped one of the modifier loci, fubi1, on chromosome 2, at approximately 65 cM from the centromere. In this region, there are two possible candidate genes, Wilms' tumor 1 and formin, that play important roles in kidney development. Some of formin mutants shared a similar phenotype with FUBI; however, there was no difference in the expression of formin in embryonic kidneys between FUBI and control NFS/N mice. Studies of fubi1 congenic mice indicated that interaction of two or more loci is essential for the FUBI phenotype.
