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
backgroundThe accumulation of glucose degradation products (GDPs) during peritoneal dialysis (PD) can lead to immature angiogenesis in the peritoneum. However, the effect of GDPs on angiogenesis, at concentrations observed in dialysate effluent, has not been widely investigated. We do not know how the inflammation observed in PD-related peritonitis affects angiogenesis of the peritoneum.
methodsHuman umbilical vessel endothelial cells (HUVEC) and human umbilical aortic smooth muscle cells (HUASMC) were used to examine the response to the three main GDPs found in peritoneal dialysate (methylglyoxal (MGO), 3-deoxyglucosone (3-DG), and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF). Supernatant from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated murine macrophage cell lines (RAW 264.7 cells) were used to stimulate angiogenesis in the peritoneum. Changes in the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) and platelet-derived growth factor B (PDGFB) in HUVEC, and PDGF-receptor beta (PDGF-Rβ) in HUASMC, were examined by real-time PCR, Western blot, and ELISA.
resultsIn HUVECs, the expression of PDGFB mRNA and protein were decreased by exposure to MGO, 3-DG, and 5-HMF at concentrations observed in dialysate effluent. A subsequent decrease in secreted PDGF-BB was observed. In HUASMCs, MGO and 5-HMF increased the expression of VEGF-A mRNA and protein, while 5-HMF decreased the expression of PDGF-Rβ. VEGF-A is upregulated, and PDGF-Rβ is downregulated, by conditioned medium of LPS-stimulated macrophages in HUASMCs.
conclusionsThe GDPs of PD effluent cause an imbalance of angiogenic factors in endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells that may lead to immature angiogenesis in the peritoneum.
