BMPER Ameliorates Renal Fibrosis by Inhibiting Tubular Dedifferentiation and Fibroblast Activation.
Article in Frontiers in cell and developmental biology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Tubulointerstitial fibrosis is both a pathological manifestation of chronic kidney disease and a driving force for the progression of kidney disease. A previous study has shown that bone morphogenetic protein-binding endothelial cell precursor-derived regulator (BMPER) is involved in lung fibrogenesis. However, the role of BMPER in renal fibrosis remains unknown. In the present study, the expression of BMPER was examined by real-time PCR, Western blot and immunohistochemical staining. The
