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

Ion channels are critical to kidney function, and their dysregulation leads to several distinct kidney diseases. Of the diversity of ion channels in kidney cells, the transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily of proteins plays important and varied roles in both maintaining homeostasis as well as in causing disease. Recent work showed that TRPC5 blockers could successfully protect critical components of the kidney filter both in vitro and in vivo, thus revealing TRPC5 as a tractable therapeutic target for focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), a common cause of kidney failure. Human genetics point to three additional TRP channels as plausible therapeutic targets: TRPC6 in FSGS, PKD2 in polycystic kidney disease, and TRPM6 in familial hypomagnesemia with secondary hypocalcemia (HSH). We conclude that targeting TRP channels could pave the way for much needed therapies for kidney diseases.
