Podocan Is Expressed in Blood and Adipose Tissue and Correlates Negatively With the Induction of Diabetic Nephropathy.
Article in Journal of the Endocrine Society, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Podocan, a member of the small leucine-rich repeat proteoglycans (SLRPs), is expressed in vascular endothelial cells with high levels of expression in the sclerotic glomerular lesions of experimental HIV-associated nephropathy. It is also found in vascular smooth muscle cells and is involved in atherosclerosis. Decorin, a protein similar to podocan, also belongs to the SLRP family and is highly expressed in adipose tissues. It is a secreted protein associated with obesity, type 2 diabetes, and diabetic nephropathy. Based on the similarity of podocan to decorin and its functions reported in the renal and cardiovascular systems, we hypothesized that podocan levels might correlate with the occurrence of metabolic syndromes such as obesity, diabetes, and diabetic nephropathy. We found that podocan was highly expressed in the adipose tissue of mice and humans and its expression was regulated by tumor necrosis factor-
