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

Epithelial tubule fusion is fundamental for kidney morphogenesis. Differentiating nephron tubules interconnect with collecting system epithelia to generate a lumenal pathway for fluid excretion. In the adult zebrafish kidney, nephrogenesis occurs as a regenerative response to injury and provides a model to explore cell signaling pathways required for tubule interconnection. We show that canonical Wnt signaling at the junction between two tubules induces a mesenchymal, invasive cell phenotype and is required, along with Src kinase and rac1, to generate basal cell protrusions. The Wnt ligands
