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

Hepcidin, the iron regulatory hormone, has three isoforms; -20, -22 and -25. While hepcidin-25 has been studied extensively, the physiological significance of other isoforms remains poorly understood. Using a quantitative method based on liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-tandem MS) developed by our group, we quantified hepcidin isoforms in human serum to elucidate their characteristics, and investigated the role of hepatocytes in isoform processing. Hepcidin isoforms in serum obtained from 40 healthy volunteers were quantified. Synthetic hepcidin peptides were added to healthy serum, and to HepG2 culture media, and hepcidin isoform concentrations determined. All three hepcidin isoforms were detected in human serum; however, hepcidin-25 concentrations were highest. The three hepcidin isoforms showed a strong positive correlation with each other and with serum ferritin. Additionally, while hepcidin-20 was strongly correlated with serum creatinine, the other isoforms were not. Hepcidin-20 and -25 levels were also increased in chronic kidney disease (CKD) serum. Hepcidin-22 rapidly degraded into hepcidin-20, whereas hepcidin-25 remained relatively stable. Finally, hepcidin-22 degradation into hepcidin-20 was accelerated in the presence of HepG2. This method has enabled us to reveal fundamental characteristics of the three hepcidin isoforms in serum and may be a powerful tool for quantifying hepcidin isoform expression and processing.
