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

The proximal tubule (PT) reabsorbs most of the glomerular filtrate and plays an important role in the uptake, metabolism and excretion of xenobiotics. Some therapeutic drugs are harmful to the PT, and resulting nephrotoxicity is thought to be responsible for approximately 1 in 6 of cases of children hospitalized with acute kidney injury (AKI). Clinically, PT dysfunction leads to urinary wasting of important solutes normally reabsorbed by this nephron segment, leading to systemic complications such as bone demineralization and a clinical scenario known as the renal Fanconi syndrome (RFS). While PT defects can be diagnosed using a combination of blood and urine markers, including urinary excretion of low molecular weight proteins (LMWP), standardized definitions of what constitutes clinically significant toxicity are lacking, and identifying which patients will go on to develop progressive loss of kidney function remains a major challenge. In addition, much of our understanding of cellular mechanisms of drug toxicity is still limited, partly due to the constraints of available cell and animal models. However, advances in new and more sophisticated in vitro models of the PT, along with the application of high-content analytical methods that can provide readouts more relevant to the clinical manifestations of nephrotoxicity, are beginning to extend our knowledge. Such technical progress should help in discovering new biomarkers that can better detect nephrotoxicity earlier and predict its long-term consequences, and herald a new era of more personalized medicine.
