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

This study aimed to investigate the effect of long non-coding RNA nuclear enriched abundant transcript 1 (lnc-NEAT1) on mouse mesangial cells (MMCs) proliferation, apoptosis, fibrosis as well as inflammation in diabetic nephropathy (DN). MMCs (SV40 MES13 cells) were cultured under 30 mM glucose to construct DN cellular model (high glucose (HG) group); meanwhile, MMCs cultured under 5.6 mM glucose (normal glucose (NG) group) and 5.6 mM glucose plus 24.4 mM 3-O-methyl-D-glucose (osmotic control (OC) group) served as controls, and lnc-NEAT1 expression was determined by qPCR assay. Lnc-NEAT1 interference plasmids and control interference plasmids were transfected into DN cellular model as Sh-NEAT1 group and Sh-NC group. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, fibrosis, and inflammation were detected using Counting Kit-8, Annexin V/propidium iodide, western blot and quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays. Lnc-NEAT1 expression was elevated in HG group compared to NG group and OC group. Cell proliferation was decreased, and proliferative marker protein Cyclin D1 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen expressions also decreased in Sh-NEAT1 group compared to Sh-NC group. For cell apoptosis, apoptosis rate was increased, and apoptotic protein Cleaved Caspase3 expression enhanced but anti-apoptosis protein Bcl-2 expression decreased in Sh-NEAT1 group compared to Sh-NC group. For fibrosis markers (including fibronectin and collagen I) and inflammatory cytokines (including tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β and interleukin-6), their expressions were reduced in Sh-NEAT1 group compared to Sh-NC group. Lnc-NEAT1 is overexpressed, and its downregulation inhibits cell proliferation, fibrosis, and inflammation but promotes cell apoptosis in HG-induced MMCs DN cellular model.
