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

The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is a major pathway of specific intracellular protein degradation through proteasome degradation of ubiquitin-labeled substrates. Numerous biological processes, including the cell cycle, transcription, translation, apoptosis, receptor activity, and intracellular signaling, are regulated by UPS. Alterations of the UPS, which render them more or less susceptible to degradation, are responsible for disorders of renal diseases. This review aims to summarize the mechanism of UPS in renal diseases. Besides, this review explores the relationship among UPS, autophagy, and deubiquitination in the development of renal disease. The specific molecular linkages among these systems and pathogenesis, on the other hand, are unknown and controversial. In addition, we briefly describe some anti-renal disease agents targeting UPS components. This review emphasizes UPS as a promising therapeutic modality for the treatment of kidney disease. Our work, though still basic and limited, could provide options to future potential therapeutic targets for renal diseases with a UPS underlying basis.
