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

Long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD) can lead to the induction of mesothelial/epithelial-mesenchymal transition (MMT/EMT) and fibrosis; these effects eventually result in ultrafiltration failure and the discontinuation of PD. MicroRNA-302c (miR-302c) is believed to be involved in regulating tumour cell growth and metastasis by suppressing MMT, but the effect of miR-302c on MMT in the context of PD is unknown. MiR-302c levels were measured in mesothelial cells isolated from the PD effluents of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patients. After miR-302c overexpression using lentivirus, human peritoneal mesothelial cell line (HMrSV5) and PD mouse peritoneum were treated with TGF-β1 or high glucose peritoneal dialysate respectively. MiR-302c expression level and MMT-related factors alteration were observed. In addition, fibrosis of PD mouse peritoneum was alleviated by miR-302c overexpression. Furthermore, the expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) was negatively related by miR-302c, and LV-miR-302c reversed the up-regulation of CTGF induced by TGF-β1. These data suggest that there is a novel TGF-β1/miR-302c/CTGF pathway that plays a significant role in the process of MMT and fibrosis during PD. MiR-302c might be a potential biomarker for peritoneal fibrosis and a novel therapeutic target for protection against peritoneal fibrosis in PD patients.
