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

The Notch pathway is an evolutionarily conserved signaling cascade that is critical in kidney development and has also been shown to play a pathogenetic role in a variety of kidney diseases. We have previously shown that the Notch signaling pathway is activated in human immunodeficiency virus-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) as well as in a rat model of the disease. In this study, we examined Notch signaling in the well established Tg26 mouse model of HIVAN. Notch signaling components were distinctly upregulated in the kidneys of these mice as well as in immortalized podocytes derived from these mice. Notch1 and Notch4 were upregulated in the Tg26 glomeruli, and Notch4 was also expressed in tubules. Notch ligands Jagged1, Jagged2, Delta-like1, and Delta-like 4 were all upregulated in the tubules of Tg26 mice, but glomeruli showed minimal expression of Notch ligands. To examine a potential pathogenetic role for Notch in HIVAN, Tg26 mice were treated with GSIXX, a gamma secretase inhibitor that blocks Notch signaling. Strikingly, GSIXX treatment resulted in significant improvement in both histological kidney injury scores and renal function. GSIXX-treated Tg26 mice also showed diminished podocyte proliferation and dedifferentiation, cellular hallmarks of the disease. Moreover, GSIXX blocked podocyte proliferation in vitro induced by HIV proteins Nef and Tat. These studies suggest that Notch signaling can promote HIVAN progression and that Notch inhibition may be a viable treatment strategy for HIVAN.
