Localisation of high acid phosphotyrosine phosphatase activity in afferent arterioles and glomeruli of human kidney.

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.
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
Endothelial cells contain a variety of specific protein tyrosine phosphatases and an acid phosphatase differing from other known phosphatases. The highest activity of this acid phosphatase with artificial or unspecific substrates is present in the afferent arterioles and glomeruli of human kidney, and the activity is inhibited by nephrotoxic fluoride concentrations, suggesting that it plays a role in circulatory regulation. Here the activity was characterised with physiological substrates. An incubation mixture containing phosphotyrosine or phosphoserine was stable at pH 5 when phosphate-precipitating lead was chelated with tartrate. The activities were studied in frozen sections. Only phosphotyrosine was hydrolysed by some cells. High activity of tartrate-resistant phosphotyrosine phosphatase was present in lymphocytes, endothelial cells of afferent arterioles, and glomerular mesangial cells of kidney, decidual cells, and alveolar macrophages. In lymphocytes the activity was fluoride-resistant and vanadate-sensitive, in other cells fluoride- and vanadate-sensitive. In decidual cells and alveolar macrophages, the activity is due to specific osteoclastic/macrophagic tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, in lymphocytes to specific protein tyrosine phosphatases, and in endothelial and mesangial cells to a protein tyrosine phosphatase-like acid phosphatase. The results suggest that in endothelial cells of the afferent arterioles, mesangial cells, and lymphocytes the cellular activities are regulated by high constitutive phosphotyrosine phosphatase activity and this may be related to the exceptional cyclosporin A sensitivity of these cells.
