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

P311, a gene that was identified in 1993, has been found to have diverse biological functions in processes such as cell proliferation, migration and differentiation. However, its role in fibrosis is unknown. We previously observed that P311 is highly expressed in skin hypertrophic scars. In this study, P311 over-expression was detected in a subset of tubular epithelial cells in clinical biopsy specimens of renal fibrosis; this over-expression, was found concurrent with α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and transforming growth factor beta1 (TGFβ1) expression. Subsequently, these results were verified in a mouse experimental renal fibrosis model induced by unilateral ureteral obstruction. The interstitial deposition of collagen, α-SMA and TGF-β1 expression, and macrophage infiltration were dramatically decreased when P311 was knocked out. Moreover, TGFβ/Smad signaling had a critical effect on the promotion of renal fibrosis by P311. In conclusion, this study demonstrate that P311 plays a key role in renal fibrosis via TGFβ1/Smad signaling, which could be a novel target for the management of renal fibrosis.
