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

objectiveRenal hypoxia has been proposed to be a pathophysiologic feature of diabetic kidney disease but it has been difficult to demonstrate in vivo, particularly in mouse models of diabetes. The objective of this work was to examine the sensitivity of blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to assess renal oxygenation in vivo in a mouse model of diabetic kidney disease, the db/db mice. RESEARCH DESIGN AND

methodsKidney BOLD MRI studies were performed on a 3.0 T scanner using multiple gradient echo sequence with a custom-designed surface coil to acquire T2*-weighted images. Studies were performed in 10-week-old db/db mice (n = 7) and db/m controls (n = 6).

resultsR2* is a measure of the tissue deoxyhemoglobin concentration and higher values of R2* are associated with hypoxia. The db/db mice had higher medullary (43.1 ± 5.1 s⁻¹ vs. 32.3 ± 3.7⁻¹ s, P = 0.001) and cortical R2* (31.7 ± 3.1 s⁻¹ vs. 27.1 ± 4.1 s⁻¹, P = 0.04) values. Using pimonidazole staining as a marker of kidney hypoxia, in kidney sections from 10-week-old db/db mice neither cortex nor medulla had significant differences as compared with 10-week-old db/m mice (cortex: db/db 2.14 ± 0.05 vs. db/m 2.02 ± 0.28, medulla: db/db 2.81 ± 0.08 vs. db/m 2.6 ± 0.08). The db/db mice demonstrated further increased cortical and medullary hypoxia when scanned again at 15 weeks of age.

conclusionsThe report shows that renal BOLD MRI is a sensitive method for the in vivo evaluation of renal hypoxia in a mouse model of diabetic kidney disease where progressive renal hypoxia can be documented over time. BOLD MRI may be useful to monitor therapeutic interventions that may improve tissue hypoxia in the diabetic kidney.
