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

BACKGROUND/

aimsThe present study tested the hypothesis that chronic hypoxia adversely affects renal development in the ovine fetus.

methodsKidneys were collected from near-term fetuses of pregnant ewes maintained at sea level or high altitude (3,801 m, PaO(2): approx. 60 mm Hg) for 110 days (n = 6 for each group).

resultsLong-term high altitude hypoxia reduced the fetal kidney/body weight ratio. Histological analysis showed a significant enlargement in the Bowman's space and swelling of tubule epithelial cells in the kidney of the hypoxic fetus. The histological alterations were limited to the cortical, but not medullary, zone. These alterations were associated with an increase in serum creatinine and a decrease in the BUN-to-creatinine ratio in hypoxic fetuses. Angiotensin II receptors (AT(1)R and AT(2)R) were detected in the glomerular and tubular regions of the kidney. Chronic hypoxia caused a significant increase in AT(1)R and a decrease in AT(2)R protein and mRNA abundance, resulting in a large increase in the AT(1)R/AT(2)R ratio in the fetal kidney.

conclusionThe results demonstrate an adverse effect of chronic hypoxia on renal AT(1)R and AT(2)R expression and functions in the fetus, suggesting a possible role of fetal hypoxia in the programming of renal diseases in fetal origins.
