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

Glycogen-storing so-called clear cell kidney tubules (CCTs), precursor lesions of renal cell carcinoma, have been described in diabetic rats and in humans. The lesions show upregulation of the Akt/mTOR-pathway and the related transcription factor carbohydrate responsive element binding protein (ChREBP), which is supposedly pro-oncogenic. We investigated the effect of ChREBP-knockout on nephrocarcinogenesis in streptozotocin-induced diabetic and normoglycemic mice. Diabetic, but not non-diabetic mice, showed CCTs at 3, 6 and 12 months of age. Glycogenosis was confirmed by periodic acid schiff reaction and transmission electron microscopy. CCTs in ChREBP-knockout mice consisted of larger cells and occurred more frequently compared to wildtype mice. Progression towards kidney tumors was observed in both diabetic groups but occurred earlier in ChREBP-knockout mice. Proliferative activity assessed by BrdU-labeling was lower in 1-week-old but higher in 12-month-old diabetic ChREBP-knockout mice. Surprisingly, renal neoplasms occurred spontaneously in non-diabetic ChREBP-knockout, but not non-diabetic wildtype mice, indicating an unexpected tumor-suppressive function of ChREBP. Immunohistochemistry showed upregulated glycolysis and lipogenesis, along with activated Akt/mTOR-signaling in tumors of ChREBP-knockout groups. Immunohistochemistry of human clear cell renal cell carcinomas revealed reduced ChREBP expression compared to normal kidney tissue. However, the molecular mechanisms by which loss of ChREBP might facilitate tumorigenesis require further investigation.
