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

objectivesIn diabetic nephropathy (DN), hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) activation in tubular cells plays an important protective role against kidney injury. The effects may occur via the target genes of HIF-1α, such as haem oxygenase-1 (HO-1), but the exact mechanisms are incompletely understood. MATERIALS AND

methodsMice with proximal tubule-specific knockout of HIF-1α (PT-HIF-1α

resultsOur study first verified that conditional knockout of HIF-1α worsened tubular injury in DN; additionally, aggravated kidney dysfunction, renal histopathological alterations, mitochondrial fragmentation, ROS accumulation and apoptosis were observed in diabetic PT-HIF-1α

conclusionsThese data revealed that HIF-1α exerted a protective effect against tubular injury in DN, which could be mediated via modulation of mitochondrial dynamics through HO-1 upregulation.
