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

Rare mutations in the LRP2 gene encoding for the endocytic receptor megalin cause developmental abnormalities and kidney disease. However, the mechanisms governing the dysfunction of mutant megalin remain unclear. A new study utilizing patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells is now putting the endolysosomal system into the spotlight, as it is proposed to play a central role in the regulation of megalin in health and disease.
