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

objectiveTo investigate the proliferation effect of aldosterone on renal tubular epithelial cells

methodsThirty-two male C57BL/6J mice (20-22 g) were divided randomly into four groups: sham, unilateral nephrectomy (UN), unilateral nephrectomy plus aldosterone infusion (UA), and UA plus eplerenone (UAE). The kidneys were removed 6 weeks after treatment. Expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was detected by immunohistochemistry and western blotting. Human kidney proximal tubular epithelial (HK2) and mouse distal convoluted tubule (mDCT) cell lines were stimulated by aldosterone (0, 10

resultsAldosterone could induce a significant increase in the number of PCNA-positive cells in mouse kidneys accompanied by increased deposition of collagen fibers. Eplerenone could inhibit aldosterone-induced cell proliferation and collagen deposition. HK2 cells and mDCT cells administered different concentrations, and different times of aldosterone stimulation failed to cause cell proliferation, and costimulation of aldosterone and salt did not cause proliferation changes in mDCT cells.

conclusionsAldosterone perfusion can induce proliferation of mouse kidney cells
