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

Uromodulin, also known as the Tamm-Horsfall protein, is predominantly expressed in epithelial cells of the kidney. It is secreted mainly in the urine, although small amounts are also found in serum. Uromodulin plays an important role in maintaining renal homeostasis, particularly in salt/water transport mechanisms and is associated with salt-sensitive hypertension. It also regulates urinary tract infections, kidney stones, and the immune response in the kidneys or extrarenal organs. Uromodulin has been shown to be associated with the renal function, age, nephron volume, and metabolic abnormalities and has been proposed as a novel biomarker for the tubular function or injury. These findings suggest that uromodulin is a key molecule underlying the mechanisms or therapeutic approaches of chronic kidney disease, particularly nephrosclerosis and diabetic nephropathy, which are causes of end-stage renal disease. This review focuses on the current understanding of the role of uromodulin from a biological, physiological, and pathological standpoint.
