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

Increasing evidence implicates activation of NF-kappaB in a variety of glomerular diseases, but the mechanisms involved are unknown. Here, upregulation of NF-kappaB in the podocytes of transgenic mice resulted in glomerulosclerosis and proteinuria. Absence of the podocyte protein nephrin resulted in NF-kappaB activation, suggesting that nephrin negatively regulates the NF-kappaB pathway. Signal transduction assays supported a functional relationship between nephrin and NF-kappaB and suggested the involvement of atypical protein kinase C (aPKCzeta/lambda/iota) as an intermediary. We propose that disruption of the slit diaphragm leads to activation of NF-kappaB; subsequent upregulation of NF-kappaB-driven genes results in glomerular damage mediated by NF-kappaB-dependent pathways. In summary, nephrin may normally limit NF-kappaB activity in the podocyte, suggesting a mechanism by which it might discourage the evolution of glomerular disease.
