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

Rho family GTPases, the prototypical members of which are Cdc42, Rac1, and RhoA, are molecular switches best known for regulating the actin cytoskeleton. In addition to the canonical small GTPases, the large GTPase dynamin has been implicated in regulating the actin cytoskeleton via direct dynamin-actin interactions. The physiologic role of dynamin in regulating the actin cytoskeleton has been linked to the maintenance of the kidney filtration barrier. Additionally, the small molecule Bis-T-23, which promotes actin-dependent dynamin oligomerization and thus, increases actin polymerization, improved renal health in diverse models of CKD, implicating dynamin as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of CKD. Here, we show that treating cultured mouse podocytes with Bis-T-23 promoted stress fiber formation and focal adhesion maturation in a dynamin-dependent manner. Furthermore, Bis-T-23 induced the formation of focal adhesions and stress fibers in cells in which the RhoA signaling pathway was downregulated by multiple experimental approaches. Our study suggests that dynamin regulates focal adhesion maturation by a mechanism parallel to and synergistic with the RhoA signaling pathway. Identification of dynamin as one of the essential and autonomous regulators of focal adhesion maturation suggests a molecular mechanism that underlies the beneficial effect of Bis-T-23 on podocyte physiology.
