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

objectiveActivation of the nuclear hormone receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-δ has been shown to improve insulin resistance, adiposity, and plasma HDL levels. Several studies have reported that activation of PPARδ is atheroprotective; however, the role of PPARδ in renal function remains unclear. Here, we report the renoprotective effects of PPARδ activation in a model of streptozotocin-induced diabetic nephropathy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND

methodsEight-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were divided into three groups: 1) nondiabetic control mice, 2) diabetic mice, and 3) diabetic mice treated with the PPARδ agonist GW0742 (1 mg/kg/day). GW0742 was administered by gavage for 8 weeks after inducing diabetes.

resultsGW0742 decreased urinary albumin excretion without altering blood glucose levels. Macrophage infiltration, mesangial matrix accumulation, and type IV collagen deposition were substantially attenuated by GW0742. The gene expression of inflammatory mediators in the kidney cortex, such as monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and osteopontin (OPN), was also suppressed. In vitro studies demonstrated that PPARδ activation increased the expression of anti-inflammatory corepressor B-cell lymphoma-6, which subsequently suppressed MCP-1 and OPN expression.

conclusionsThese findings uncover a previously unrecognized mechanism for the renoprotective effects of PPARδ agonists and support the concept that PPARδ agonists may offer a novel therapeutic approach for the treatment of diabetic nephropathy.
