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

purposeUrinary exosome is an ideal noninvasive, low-cost source of kidney diseases biomarkers. However, many factors effect the isolation of urine-derived exosome. The effect of pH on the yield of exosome isolation under different pH was explored.

methodsThe pH was adjusted for 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 with hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide solution. All samples were incubated for 30 min before differential ultracentrifugation. Exosome-associated protein markers TSG101, ALIX and total concentration of RNA were evaluated by Western-blotting and micro-amount ultraviolet spectrophotometer, respectively.

resultsA major loss of urinary exosome was received at pH 8 compared with alkali medium or control group. There was no difference whether or not added EDTA-Na

conclusionsAcidic environment was likely to conducive to the isolation of exosome and maintain its stability and integrity that suggest pH medium needs to be carefully considered and also provide a methodology for future separation exosome.
