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

aims/hypothesisAlthough 80% of diabetic patients will suffer from voiding difficulties and urinary symptoms, defined as diabetic voiding dysfunction (DVD), therapeutic targets and treatment options are limited. We hypothesise that the blockade of the pro-nerve growth factor (NGF)/p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75

methodsIn a streptozotocin-induced mouse model of diabetes, diabetic mice received either a blocking anti-proNGF monoclonal antibody or a p75

resultsDiabetic mice showed features of DVD as early as 2 weeks after diabetes diagnosis (baseline) presented by hypertrophy, reduced contractility and abnormal cystometric parameters. Following treatment initiation, a twofold increase (p < 0.05) in untreated diabetic mouse bladder weight and thickness compared with non-diabetic controls was observed, and this change was reversed by p75 CONCLUSIONS/

interpretationOur findings indicate that blockade of proNGF and the p75
