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

Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disease caused by α-galactosidase A (α-Gal A) deficiency. Kidney and heart failure are frequent complications in adulthood and greatly contribute to patient morbidity and mortality. Because α-Gal A-deficient mouse models do not recapitulate cardiorenal findings observed in patients, a nonmouse model may be beneficial to our understanding of disease pathogenesis. In this study, we evaluated disease processes in a recently generated Fabry rat model. We found that male Fabry rats weighed significantly less than wild-type (WT) males, whereas female Fabry rats weighed significantly more than WT females. Whereas no difference in female survival was detected, we observed that male Fabry rats had a decreased lifespan. Skin histology revealed that inflammation and lipoatrophy may be chief disease mediators in patients. With respect to the kidney and heart, we found that both organs accumulate α-Gal A substrates, including the established biomarkers, globotriaosylceramide and globotriaosylsphingosine. Longitudinal serum and urine chemistry panels demonstrated pronounced renal tubule dysfunction, which was confirmed histologically. Mitral valve thickening was observed in Fabry rats using echocardiography. We conclude that Fabry rats recapitulate important kidney and heart phenotypes experienced by patients and can be further used to study disease mechanisms and test therapies.-Miller, J.
