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

The kidney is a remarkable organ that accomplishes the challenge of removing waste from the body and simultaneously regulating electrolyte and water balance. Pro-urine flows through the nephron in a highly dynamic manner and adjustment of the reabsorption rates of water and ions to the variable tubular flow is required for electrolyte homeostasis. Renal epithelial cells sense the tubular flow by mechanosensation. Interest in this phenomenon has increased in the past decade since the acknowledgement of primary cilia as antennae that sense renal tubular flow. However, the significance of tubular flow sensing for electrolyte handling is largely unknown. Signal transduction pathways regulating flow-sensitive physiological responses involve calcium, purinergic and nitric oxide signalling, and are considered to have an important role in renal electrolyte handling. Given that mechanosensation of tubular flow is an integral role of the nephron, defective tubular flow sensing is probably involved in renal disease. Studies investigating tubular flow and electrolyte transport differ in their methodology, subsequently hampering translational validity. This Review provides the basis for understanding electrolyte disorders originating from altered tubular flow sensing as a result of pathological conditions.
