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

The three-dimensional localization of laminin in rat glomeruli at the chronic phase of Masugi nephritis was investigated by a quick-freezing and deep-etching method combined with immunohistochemistry. Light-microscopically, laminin was localized in increased mesangial matrix and thickened glomerular basement membrane. The quick-freezing and deep-etching method revealed that the increased mesangial matrix, which was newly formed in axial portions and areas of mesangial interposition, was composed of fine fibrillar networks. They were revealed with the 3,3'-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride (DAB) reaction products of peroxidase-labelled secondary antibody following anti-laminin antibody. However, these reaction products were not uniformly distributed in the newly formed matrix. Although the fibrils organizing lamina densa were also immunostained with anti-laminin antibody, the fibrils connected to mesangial cells, podocytes and endothelial cells had smaller amounts of DAB reaction products for laminin. These results indicate that one of the components of fibrils in the mesangial matrix and lamina densa is laminin, which is heterogeneously distributed in the newly formed matrix.
