LncRNA ZEB1-AS1 inhibits renal fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy by regulating the miR-217/MAFB axis.
Article in RSC advances, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a common chronic microvascular complication of diabetes, characterized by the deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. Zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 antisense 1 (ZEB1-AS1) has been implicated in kidney fibrosis of human DN. Here, we further explored the detailed molecular mechanism of ZEB1-AS1 in renal fibrosis in DN. The expression of ZEB1-AS1 was monitored using a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Blood glucose concentrations of mice were measured using a fast blood glucose meter. The high-performance liquid chromatography method was used to measure the serum creatinine level. Western blot analysis was used to detect the protein level of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), fibronectin, collagen I, collagen IV and MAFB. The level of urine albumin was detected using the BCG (Bromocresol Green) albumin assay kit. The interaction between ZEB1-AS1, miR-217 and MAFB was investigated
