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 role of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in kidney diseases is not well elucidated. Fifty patients with primary glomerular diseases (PGD): minimal change disease (MCD), focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), membranous glomerulonephritis (MGN), membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN), and crescentic glomerulonephritis, n = 10 (each group) were enrolled. MCD, FSGS, and MGN patients were sub-grouped as nonproliferative glomerulonephritis (NPGN) and MPGN, RPGN as proliferative glomerulonephritis (PGN). Glucose regulated proteins (GRP-78), growth arrest and DNA damage inducible proteins (GADD-153), and Bcl-2 protein expression was analyzed by Western blotting, immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry in the kidney biopsy. Up regulation of GADD-153, GRP-78, with more pronounced expression in PGN vs. NPGN (P < 0.05) and down regulation of Bcl-2 proteins was observed in the GN (PGD excluding MCD) as compared to MCD (P < 0.05). Our results suggest that renal injury in PGD is associated with ER stress and ER stress may be involved in the rapid progression of PGN to renal failure.
