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

aimsVascular calcification (VC) is a primary risk factor for cardiovascular mortality in chronic renal failure (CRF) patients; thus, effective therapeutic targets are urgently needed to be explored. Here, we identified the role of intestinal bacterial translocation in CRF-related VC. METHODS AND

resultsAntibiotic supplementation by oral gavage significantly suppressed intestinal bacterial translocation, CRF-related VC, and aortic osteogenic gene and Toll-like receptor (TLR) gene expression in CRF rats. Furthermore, TLR4 and TLR9 activation in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) aggravated inorganic phosphate- (Pi-) induced calcification. TLR9 inhibition, but not TLR4 inhibition, by both a pharmacological inhibitor and genetic methods could significantly reduce CRF rats' serum or CRF-induced VC. Interestingly, bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP-2) levels were increased in the aorta and sera from CRF rats. Increased BMP-2 levels were also observed in VSMCs treated with TLR9 agonist, which was blocked by NF-

conclusionsGut bacterial translocation inhibited by oral antibiotic significantly reduces CRF-related VC through inhibition of TLR9/NF-
