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

introductionAutosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) causes kidney failure typically in adulthood, but the disease starts

methodsIn a cross-sectional study, plasma copeptin, urinary EGF, and urinary MCP-1 were evaluated in a pediatric ADPKD cohort and compared with age-, sex-, and body mass index (BMI)-matched healthy controls. MCP-1 was studied in mouse collecting duct cells, human proximal tubular cells, and fetal kidney tissue.

resultsFifty-three genotyped ADPKD patients and 53 controls were included. The mean (SD) age was 10.4 (5.9) versus 10.5 (6.1) years (

conclusionAn increase in tubular MCP-1 secretion is an early event in ADPKD. MCP-1 is an early disease severity marker and a potential treatment target.
