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

backgroundUremic impairment of wound healing is a well-established phenomenon, however the etiology of this condition continues to be a medical enigma. Carbamylation, posttranslational modification (PTM) occurring with high frequency in uremic milieu, is known to have impact on structural and functional properties of proteins and peptides. Herein we show that carbamylation of the members of kinin-kallikrein system, that play an essential role in wound healing process, results in its aberrant functionality and impedes the complex process of tissue regeneration in uremic patients.

resultsThrough enzymatic assays we demonstrate that carbamylation of kininogen results in aberrant bradykinin generation. We confirmed that bradykinin is efficiently carbamylated in uremic conditions and, alternatively, by activated neutrophiles. Moreover, this modification affects proteolytic cleavage of the peptide, potentially leading to the accumulation of the carbamylated form. Modified peptide demonstrated lower affinity toward its receptors. Carbamylation diminished bradykinin's ability to stimulate expression of the B

conclusionsCarbamylation-driven impairment of wound healing is a mechanistic link to wound persistence in uremia. Importantly, production of carbamylated bradykinin in localized inflammatory milieus could be a significant contributor to delayed wound healing and formation of chronic wounds in diabetes or psoriasis.
