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

objectiveIn this research, we explored the molecular mechanism of proteinuria in glomerulosclerosis rats and the protective effects of ATRA.

methodsThis research set up three groups: SHO group, GS group, and ATRA group (15 mg/(kg d), Sigma, St. Louis, MO). The serum creatinine (Scr), urea nitrogen (BUN), and 24-h proteinuria were detected 12 weeks after administration of ATRA. The pathological and ultrastructure changes were observed under light microscope and transmission electron microscope. The protein expression of TGF-β

resultsIn the rat model of GS, the expressions of TRPC6 were significantly elevated compared with the normal rat group; however, the use of ATRA down-regulated the expression of TRPC6 in the glomeruli and attenuated glomerulosclerosis and proteinuria. Scr and BUN were also improved by the treatment of ATRA.

conclusionsOur results demonstrated that ATRA could ameliorate glomerulosclerosis and proteinuria in GS, which may be related to suppressed expression of TRPC6.
