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

backgroundApproximately one third of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) cases present with diabetic nephropathy (DN), the leading cause of end-stage renal disease. Inflammation plays an important role in T2DM disease and DN pathogenesis. NLRP3 inflammasomes are complexes that regulate interleukin-1B (IL-1B) and IL-18 secretion, both involved in inflammatory responses. Activation of NLRP3 is associated with DN onset and progression. Here, we explore whether DN is associated with variants in genes encoding key members of the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway.

methodsUsing genome-wide association data, we performed a pilot case-control association study, between 101 DN-T2DM and 185 non-DN-T2DM cases from the Hellenic population across six NLRP3 inflammasome pathway genes.

resultsThree common

conclusionCARD8 acts as an NLRP3, NF-κB and caspase-1 inhibitor; perhaps, alterations in the cross-talk between CARD8, NF-κB, and NLRP3, which could affect the pro-inflammatory environment in T2DM, render diabetic carriers of certain common
