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

introductionInflammasome is a multi-protein complex which is an important constituent of innate immunity. It mainly consists of three parts, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing caspase recruitment domain (ASC), caspase protease, and a NOD-like receptor (NLR) family protein (such as NLRP1) or an HIN200 family protein (such as AIM2). Inflammasome is widely studied in many autoimmune diseases and chronic inflammatory reactions, such as familial periodic autoinflammatory response, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, and atherosclerosis. Activation of inflammasome in the kidney has been widely reported in glomerular and tubular-interstitial diseases. Podocytes play a critical role in maintaining the normal structure and function of glomerular filtration barrier. Recently, it has been demonstrated that podocytes, as a group of renal residential cells, can express all necessary components of NLRP3 inflammasome, which is activated and contribute to inflammatory response in the local kidney.

methodsLiterature review was conducted to further summarize current evidence of podocyte NLRP3 inflammasome activation and related molecular mechanisms under different disease conditions.

resultsPodocytes are a key component of the glomerular filtration barrier, and the loss of podocyte regeneration is a major limiting factor in the recovery of proteinuria. Through a more comprehensive study of inflammasome in podocytes, it will provide new targets and possibilities for the treatment of kidney diseases.
