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

Blood glucose homeostasis is critical to ensure the proper functioning of the human body. Through the processes of filtration, reabsorption, secretion, and metabolism, much of this task falls to the kidneys. With a rise in glucose and other added sugars, there is an increased burden on this organ, mainly the proximal tubule, which is responsible for all glucose reabsorption. In this review, we focus on the current physiological and cell biological functions of the renal proximal tubule as it works to reabsorb and metabolize glucose and fructose. We also highlight the physiological adaptations that occur within the proximal tubule as sugar levels rise under pathophysiological conditions including diabetes. This includes the detrimental impacts of an excess glucose load that leads to glucotoxicity. Finally, we explore some of the emerging therapeutics that modulate renal glucose handling and the systemic protection that can be realized by targeting the reabsorptive properties of the kidney.
