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

Mutations in PKD1 are associated with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), which leads to major cardiovascular complications. We used mice with a heterozygous deletion of Pkd1 (Pkd1+/-) and wild-type (Pkd1+/+) littermates to test whether Pkd1 haploinsufficiency is associated with a vascular phenotype in different age groups. Systolic blood pressure measured by the tail-cuff method was similar up to 20 weeks of age, but significantly higher in 30-week-old Pkd1+/- compared to Pkd1+/+. By contrast, similar telemetric recordings were obtained in unrestrained Pkd1+/- and Pkd1+/+ mice. The contractile responses evoked by KCl or phenylephrine were similar in young animals but increased in abdominal aortas of 30-week-old Pkd1+/- mice, and acetylcholine-evoked relaxation was depressed. Basal cytosolic calcium, KCl, and phenylephrine-evoked calcium signals were significantly lower in the Pkd1+/- aortas, whereas calcium release evoked by caffeine or thapsigargin was significantly larger. These changes were paralleled with a significant change in the mRNA expression of Pkd2, Trpc1, Orai1, and Serca2a in the aortas from Pkd1+/- vs. Pkd1+/+. These results are the first to indicate that haploinsufficiency in Pkd1 is associated with altered intracellular calcium homeostasis and increased vascular reactivity in the aorta with compensatory changes in transport proteins involved in the calcium signaling network.
