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.
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
introductionIn our previous study, we observed the crosstalk between peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) and angiotensin II in activated renal tubular cells. The present study is aimed to further explore the crosstalk between PPAR-γ and mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) in tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α activated renal tubular cells.
methodsHuman proximal renal tubular epithelial cells HK-2 were cultured with the pre-treatment of PPAR-γ agonist, pioglitazone (5 μM), MR antagonist, eplerenone (5 μM), or their combined treatment, followed by activation with TNF-α (20 ng/ml). In the parallel experiment, PPAR-γ inhibitor GW9662 (25 µM) was used to study the independence of PPAR-γ. Gene expression and protein synthesis of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), MR and PPAR-γ were measured by RT-PCR, ELISA and Western blot, respectively; nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) nuclear translocation activity in the nucleus was examined by EMSA assay.
resultsTNF-α effectively activated HK-2 cells by up-regulating gene expression and protein synthesis of ICAM-1, IL-6 and MR and down-regulating PPAR-γ in a dose-dependent manner. TNF-α also significantly induced NF-κB nuclear translocation in HK-2 cells. Dual treatment of pioglitazone and eplerenone demonstrated synergistic effect on reducing ICAM-1 and IL-6 expression and alleviating NF-κB activation when compared with their monotherapies in TNF-α activated renal tubular cells. PPAR-γ antagonist, GW9662, significantly attenuated protective effect on ICAM-1, IL-6 and PPAR-γ expression by pioglitazone, eplerenone and their combined treatment.
conclusionsOur data suggest that pioglitazone, in a PPAR-γ-dependent manner, trans-represses MR signaling by suppressing NF-κB activation. MR antagonist also restored PPAR-γ expression. Dual treatment of pioglitazone and eplerenone present better efficacy in attenuating excessive inflammatory response in activated renal tubular cells under stimulation of TNF-α than single treatment.
