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

Bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) often results in lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTSs) and negatively affects quality of life. Here, we evaluated gene expression patterns in the urinary bladder during tissue remodeling due to BOO. We divided BOO model rats into two groups according to the degree of hypertrophy of smooth muscle in the bladder. The strong muscular hypertrophy group, which exhibited markedly increased bladder smooth muscle proportion and HIF1α mRNA levels compared with the control group, was considered a model for the termination of hypertrophy, whereas the mild muscular hypertrophy group was considered a model of the initiation of hypertrophy. Some genes related to urinary function showed different expression patterns between the two groups. Furthermore, we found that several genes, including D-box binding PAR bZIP transcription factor (DBP), were upregulated only in the mild muscular hypertrophy group. DBP expression levels were increased in bladder smooth muscle cells in response to hypoxic stress. DBP associated with enhancer and promoter regions of NOS3 gene locus and upregulated NOS3 gene expression under hypoxic conditions. These findings suggested that the regulatory systems of gene expression were altered during tissue remodeling following BOO. Furthermore, circadian clock components might be involved in control of urinary function via transcriptional gene regulation in response to hypoxic stimuli.
