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

This study examined the effects of anti-TGF-β antibody (1D11) therapy in Dahl S (S) rats fed a 4% NaCl diet. Baseline renal expression of TGF-β1 and the degree of injury were lower in female than male S rats maintained on a 0.4% NaCl diet. 4% NaCl diet increased mean arterial pressure (MAP), proteinuria, and renal injury to the same extent in both male and female S rats. Chronic treatment with 1D11 had renoprotective effects in both sexes. The ability of 1D11 to oppose the development of proteinuria when given alone or in combination with antihypertensive agents was further studied in 6-wk-old female S rats, since baseline renal injury was less than that seen in male rats. 1D11, diltiazem, and hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) attenuated the development of hypertension, proteinuria, and glomerular injury. 1D11 had no additional effect when given in combination with these antihypertensive agents. We also explored whether 1D11 could reverse renal injury in 9-wk-old male S rats with preexisting renal injury. MAP increased to 197 ± 4 mmHg and proteinuria rose to >300 mg/day after 3 wk on a 4% NaCl diet. Proteinuria was reduced by 30-40% in rats treated with 1D11, HCT, or captopril + 1D11, but the protective effect was lost in rats fed the 4% NaCl diet for 6 wk. Nevertheless, 1D11, HCT, and captopril + 1D11 still reduced renomedullary and cardiac fibrosis. These results indicate that anti-TGF-β antibody therapy reduces renal and cardiac fibrosis and affords additional renoprotection when given in combination with various antihypertensive agents in Dahl S rats.
