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

Calcineurin (Cn) inhibitors (CnI) such as cyclosporine A (CsA) and FK506 are nephrotoxic immunosuppressant drugs, which decrease tubular function. Here, we examined the direct effect of CnI on aquaporin-2 (AQP2) expression in rat primary cultured inner medullary collecting duct cells. CsA (0.5-5 μM) but not FK 506 (0.01-1 μM) decreased expression of AQP2 protein and messenger RNA (mRNA) in a concentration and time dependent manner, without affecting mRNA stability. This effect was observed despite similar inhibition of Cn activity by both CnI, thereby suggesting that the CsA-dependent decrease in AQP2 expression was Cn independent. Another inhibitor of cyclophilin A, the primary intracellular target of CsA, had no effect on AQP2 expression. In order to investigate the mechanism of decreased AQP2 transcription, we studied activation status of two suggested transcriptional regulators of AQP2, cAMP-responsive element binding protein (CREB), and tonicity enhancer binding protein (TonEBP). Localization of TonEBP, as well as TonEBP-mediated gene transcription, was not affected by CsA. Phosphorylation of CREB at an activating phosphorylation site (S133) was decreased by CsA, but not by FK506. However, both CnI did not affect cellular cAMP levels. We show that CsA decreases transcription of AQP2, a process that is in part independent of Cn or cyclophilin A and suggests dependence on decreased activity of CREB.
