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

Kidney fibrosis is the final common pathway of virtually all chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, despite great progress in recent years, no targeted antifibrotic therapies have been approved. Epidemiologic, clinical, and molecular evidence suggest that aging is a major contributor to the increasing incidence of CKD. Senescent renal tubular cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and podocytes have been detected in the kidneys of patients with CKD and animal models. Nonetheless, although accumulated evidence supports the essential role of cellular senescence in CKD, the mechanisms that promote cell senescence and how senescent cells contribute to CKD remain largely unknown. In this review, we summarize the features of the cellular senescence of the kidney and discuss the possible functions of senescent cells in the pathogenesis of kidney fibrosis. We also address whether pharmacological approaches targeting senescent cells can be used to retard the the progression of kidney fibrosis.
