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

Whether early glomerular, tubulointerstitial, vascular, and global glomerulosclerotic lesions can predict progression of diabetic nephropathy is not well defined. Here, we sought to determine whether renal structural parameters predict the development of proteinuria or ESRD after long-term follow-up. We measured several renal structures in kidney biopsies from 94 normoalbuminuric patients with longstanding type 1 diabetes using unbiased morphometric methods. Greater width of the glomerular basement membrane and higher levels of glycated hemoglobin were independent predictors of progression to diabetic nephropathy in this normoalbuminuric cohort. Moreover, none of these patients with type 1 diabetes who had glomerular basement membrane widths within the normal range developed proteinuria and/or ESRD. In conclusion, careful quantitative assessment of kidney biopsies in normoalbuminuric patients with type 1 diabetes adds substantially to the prediction of progression to clinical diabetic nephropathy.
