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

Anemia is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adult and pediatric patients. It has traditionally been treated with erythropoietin therapy and iron supplementation, with great success. With the discovery of the major transcription factor hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) for the erythropoietin gene in 1992, molecules were created that inhibit the HIF prolyl-hydroxylase enzyme. This new class of drug-called HIF stabilizers, or HIF prolyl-hydroxylase inhibitors-prevents the proteasomal degradation of HIF-α, thereby inducing upregulation of the erythropoietin gene. This new strategy for treating CKD anemia is already in phase III clinical trials in adults, and the potential advantages of this therapy are that it is orally active (thereby avoiding injections), and patients are exposed to lower circulating levels of erythropoietin. The long-term safety of this strategy, however, requires elucidation in these trials, particularly since there are many other hypoxia-sensitive genes, notably, angiogenic factors such as vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF), as well as glycolytic enzymes. As with all new therapies, it is only once a positive benefit: risk profile has been ascertained in adults that the treatment will translate across into pediatrics. Specific issues in the pediatric CKD population are discussed in this review.
