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

Type 1 and Type 2 diabetic patients are at high risk of developing diabetic nephropathy (DN). Renal functional decline is gradual and there is high variability between patients, though the reason for the variability is unknown. Enough diabetic patients progress to end stage renal disease to make diabetes the leading cause of renal failure. The first symptoms of DN do not appear for years or decades after the onset of diabetes. During and after the asymptomatic period structural changes develop in the diabetic kidney. Typically, but not always, the first symptom of DN is albuminuria. Loss of renal filtration rate develops later. This review examines the structural abnormalities of diabetic kidneys that are associated with and possibly the basis for advancing albuminuria and declining GFR. Mouse models of diabetes and genetic manipulations of these models have become central to research into mechanisms underlying DN. This article also looks at the value of these mouse models to understanding human DN as well as potential pitfalls in translating the mouse results to humans.
