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

backgroundProlonged peritoneal dialysis (PD) can result in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and peritoneal fibrosis (PF), which can cause patients to discontinue PD. It is imperative to urgently investigate effective measures to mitigate PF. This study aims to reveal mechanisms of exosomal lncRNA GAS5 derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) on EMT of human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs) under high glucose (HG) conditions.

methodsHPMCs were stimulated with 2.5% glucose. The effects on EMT of HPMCs were observed by using an hUC-MSC conditioned medium (hUC-MSC-CM) and extracted exosomes. After hUC-MSCs were transfected with GAS5 siRNA, exosomes were extracted to act on HPMCs for detecting EMT markers, PTEN, and Wnt/β-catenin pathway, lncRNA GAS5 and miR-21 expressions in HPMCs.

resultsWe found that HG could induce the EMT of HPMCs. Compared with the HG group, the hUC-MSC-CM could alleviate the EMT of HPMCs induced by HG through exosomes. Exosomes in the hUC-MSC-CM entered HPMCs, by transferring lncRNA GAS5 to HPMCs, which down-regulates miR-21 and up-regulates PTEN, thus finally alleviating EMT of HPMCs. The Wnt/β-catenin pathway plays an essential role in alleviating EMT of HPMCs by exosomes in the hUC-MSC-CM. By transferring lncRNA GAS5 to HPMCs, exosomes derived from hUC-MSCs may competitively bind to miR-21 to regulate suppression on target PTEN genes and alleviate EMT of HPMCs through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

conclusionsExosomes from the hUC-MSCs-CM could alleviate the EMT of HPMCs induced by HG via regulating lncRNA GAS5/miR-21/PTEN through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
