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

aimsLeft ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is the most frequent cardiac complication in chronic renal disease. Previous studies implicate elevated serum phosphorus as a risk factor for LVH.

methodsWe treated 5/6 nephrectomized rats with enalapril or enalapril + sevelamer carbonate for 4 months to determine if sevelamer carbonate had an additional beneficial effect on the development of LVH and uremia-induced left ventricle (LV) remodeling.

resultsUremia increased LV weight and cardiomyocyte size. Enalapril and enalapril + sevelamer blunted the increase in left ventricular weight. Only enalapril + sevelamer diminished the increase in cardiomyocyte size. Uremia increased cyclin D2 and PCNA and decreased p27 protein expression in the heart. Enalapril + sevelamer diminished the decrease in p27 expression caused by uremia. Uremia increased Ki67-positive and phosphohistone H(3)-positive interstitial cells. This was not seen in cardiomyocytes. Multivariable regression analysis showed that increased phosphorus was an independent risk factor for both increased LV weight and cardiomyocyte size.

conclusionsThese data suggest left ventricular remodeling consists of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and interstitial cell proliferation, but not cardiomyocyte proliferation. p27 and cyclin D2 may play important roles in the development of LVH. In addition, phosphorus can be an independent risk factor for the development of LVH.
