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

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is a common disorder, affecting approximately one in 1,000 individuals. This disease is characterized by the presence of renal and extrarenal cysts, as well as by cardiovascular abnormalities, including hypertension and intracranial aneurysms. Mutations in the PKD1 gene account for 85% of cases, whereas mutations in PKD2 account for the remaining 15% of cases. Findings from the past 10 years indicate that polycystins, the products of the PKD genes, have a key role in renal and vascular mechanosensory transduction. In the primary cilium of renal, nodal, and endothelial cells, polycystins are proposed to act as flow sensors. In addition, the ratio of polycystin-1 to polycystin-2 regulates pressure sensing in arterial myocytes. In this Review, we summarize the data indicating that polycystins are key molecules in mechanotransduction. Moreover, we discuss the role of nucleotide release and autocrine and/or paracrine purinergic signaling in both fluid flow and pressure responses. Finally, we discuss the possible role of altered mechanosensory transduction in the etiology of polycystic kidney disease.
