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

backgroundIt is well-recognized that injection of iodinated radiographic contrast media (CM) sometimes causes acute renal injury via multiple mechanisms, such as vasoconstriction, toxicity on glomerular endothelium and tubular epithelium and so forth. CASE PRESENTATION: A 51-year-old man developed acute renal injury with proteinuria after CM administration. To our surprise, in his renal biopsy sample the myelin figure like structure was observed in glomerular endothelium and mesangial cells by transmission electron microscopy. However the patient didn't has any clinic clues of Fabry disease and other lysosomal storage disorders. Moreover in vitro cultured glomerular endothelial and mesangial cells we found CM triggers lipid aggregation along with the increased CD36 and decreased ABCA1 abundance. Thus this patient was administrated statin to correct the aberrant lipid trafficking, 2 months later at his next visit we found his renal function partially recovered with reduced proteinuria.

conclusionsBesides the well-known underlying mechanisms, CM may cause renal impairment by triggering the dysregulated transportation of lipid. Furthermore statin is suggested to be a very promising medicine to decrease side effects of CM.
