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 (ADPKD) is characterized by the growth of multiple cysts that in many cases result in end-stage renal disease. Current strategies to reduce cyst progression in ADPKD focus on modulating cell turnover, fluid secretion, and vasopressin signalling; but an alternative approach may be to target pathways providing "general support" for cyst growth, such as surrounding blood vessels. This could be achieved by altering the expression of growth factors involved in vascular network formation, such as the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and angiopoietin families. We highlight the evidence that blood vessels and vascular growth factors play a role in ADPKD progression. Recent experiments manipulating VEGF in ADPKD are described, and we discuss how alternative strategies to manipulate angiogenesis may be used in the future as a novel treatment for ADPKD.
