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

Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is mainly caused by variants in the PKHD1 gene, encoding fibrocystin (FC), a large transmembrane protein of incompletely understood cellular function. Here, we show that a C-terminal fragment of human FC can suppress a signalling module of the kinase SRC and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3). Consistently, we identified truncating genetic variants specifically affecting the cytoplasmic tail in ARPKD patients, found SRC and the cytoplasmic tail of fibrocystin in a joint dynamic protein complex and observed increased activation of both SRC and STAT3 in cyst-lining renal epithelial cells of ARPKD patients.
