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 the present study we have investigated the distribution of IGF-I mRNA and IGF-I binding sites in the rat kidney. The distribution of IGF-I mRNA was investigated using a simple and sensitive non-radioactive in situ hybridisation technique based on probe labelling with digoxigenin labelled-UTP followed by detection with conventional immunocytochemical techniques. IGF-I mRNA was found predominantly in medullary collecting ducts and sparsely in cortical collecting duct cells. In addition IGF-I mRNA was expressed in scattered proximal tubular cells in the cortex and in cells confined to the glomerular tuft. IGF-I binding sites were studied using radiolabelled IGF-I and conventional autoradiographical techniques on tissue sections. It was found that IGF-I binding sites were widely distributed throughout the entire kidney and that the specific binding was highest in the inner medulla. These findings add further complexity to the understanding of IGF-I production and action on renal structures.
