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 primary cilium has been the focus of intense research since it was discovered that mutations in ciliary/basal body localized proteins give rise to a multitude of disorders. While these studies have revealed the contribution of this sensory organelle to multiple signalling pathways, little is known about how it actually mediates downstream events and why its loss causes disease states. Ciliopathies are linked to defects in either structure or function of cilia and are often associated with kidney cysts. The ciliopathy, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), is caused by mutations to the PKD1 or PKD2 gene. The PKD gene products localize to the primary cilium, where they have been proposed to form a mechanosensory complex, sensitive to flow. Since mouse knockout models of Pkd1 or Pkd2 develop structurally normal cilia, it has been hypothesized that the loss of polycystins may lead to an impairment of flow sensing. Today, technically challenging patch clamp recordings of the primary cilium have become available, and the genetic relationship between polycystins (TRPPs) and the primary cilium has recently been dissected in detail.
