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

Proximal tubule (PT) cells can proliferate explosively after injurious stimuli. To investigate this proliferative capacity, we examined cell cycle status and the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27, a G1 phase mediator, in PT cells after a proliferative or injurious stimulus. Rats were treated with lead acetate (proliferative stimulus) or uranyl acetate (UA; injurious stimulus). Isolated tubular cells were separated into PT and distal tubule (DT) cells by density-gradient centrifugation. Cell cycle status was analyzed with flow cytometry by using the Hoechst 33342/pyronin Y method. Most PT and DT cells from control rats were in G0/G1 phase, with a higher percentage of PT cells than DT cells in G1 phase. Lead acetate and UA administration promoted the G0-G1 transition and the accumulation of G1 phase cells before S phase progression. In PT cells from rats treated with lead acetate or a subnephrotoxic dose of UA, p27 levels increased or did not change, possibly reflecting G1 arrest. In contrast, p27 became undetectable before the appearance of apoptotic cells in rats treated with a nephrotoxic dose of UA. The decrease in p27 might facilitate rapid cell cycling. The decreased number of p27-positive cells was associated with PT cell proliferation in renal tissues after a proliferative or injurious stimulus. The findings suggest that a high ratio of G1 to G0 phase cells and a rapid accumulation of G1 phase cells before S phase progression in the PT is a biological strategy for safe, timely, and explosive cell proliferation in response to injurious stimuli.
