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

Alterations in the process of mechanotransduction have been implicated in the pathogenesis of several diseases such as genetic diseases, osteoporosis, cardiovascular anomalies, and cancer. Several studies over the past twenty years have demonstrated that polycystins (polycystin-1, PC1; and polycystin-2, PC2) respond to changes of extracellular mechanical cues, and mediate pathogenic mechanotransduction and cyst formation in kidney cells. However, recent reports reveal the emergence of polycystins as key proteins that facilitate the transduction of mechano-induced signals in various clinical entities besides polycystic kidney disease, such as cancer, cardiovascular defects, bone loss, and deformations, as well as inflammatory processes like psoriasis. Herewith, we discuss data from recent studies that establish this role with potential clinical utility.
