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

Peritoneal fibrosis resulting from long-term peritoneal dialysis is a major cause of failure of peritoneal ultrafiltration function and main reason of dropout from peritoneal dialysis. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of peritoneal mesochelial cells (HPMCs) is a major contributor of peritoneal fibrosis. Recently, the association between histone acetylation and kinds of fibrosis including liver, lung and kidney fibrosis is well established. Thus, in this study we tried to profile whether histone acetylation is also operates EMT process in HPMCs and what's the regulatory mechanism. We established an EMT model of HPMCs through high glucose treatment. And hyperacetylation of H3 histone was found using western blot in EMT model. After treated with C646, a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) inhibitor, high glucose-induced EMT in HPMCs was counteracted. To further understand the molecular mechanism of C646 rescues high glucose-induced EMT, CHIP-qPCRwas used to examine the modulation of histone H3 acetylation at promoters of series signaling target genes. We found that the H3 acetylation level at TGF-β1 gene promoter was down-regulation by C646 treatment. Moreover, we also found that TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling was blocked. Hence, our results suggest that histone H3 acetylation activated TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling during EMT of HPMCs, and C646 can rescue the mesenchymal phenotype transition. These findings may provide a novel pathogenic mechanism and therapeutic target for peritoneal fibrosis.
