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

backgroundNetrin-1 is a diagnostic biomarker that has been identified recently for chronic renal failure (CRF) in animal experiments. Netrin-1 levels in urine have been shown to have increased significantly at the acute kidney damage. Human studies on the relation between the CRF and plasma netrin-1 levels have not been found in the literature. This study aimed to investigate whether plasma netrin-1 levels increased in the early stages of the CRF in diabetic patients.

methodsPlasma samples from healthy volunteers and diabetic patients with and without microalbuminuria were collected after receiving consent. Netrin-1 in plasma was quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and the data were analyzed to determine whether plasma netrin-1 correlates significantly with disease progression.

resultPlasma netrin-1 level in microalbuminuric diabetic patients was significantly higher than in normoalbuminuric diabetic patients and the control group. However, no significant difference between normoalbuminuric patients and control group was determined. Plasma netrin-1 level was significantly associated with albuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate, independently of age and sex.

conclusionThis study supports that plasma netrin-1 level increases significantly when glomerular damage occurs in diabetic nephropathy.
