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

backgroundInjury to the glomerular filtration barrier causes diabetic kidney disease (DKD), and glomerular endothelial-mesenchymal transition damages the filtration barrier of glomerular endothelial cells. Shenfushu granules (SFSGs) can treat chronic renal failure; however, their role and mechanism in DKD remain unclear.

aimTo investigate the role of SFSGs in delaying DKD progression and their underlying mechanism in a streptozotocin-induced DKD mouse model.

methodsThe microalbumin content in the urine and the blood glucose, creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen levels in the serum were measured. The expression and distribution of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), heparan sulfate (HS) and cluster of differentiation (CD) 31 were observed through immunofluorescence or immunohistochemistry. Western blotting was conducted to measure the expression of CD31, α-SMA,

resultsCompared with those in the model group, the 24-hour microalbuminuria (188.2 ± 20.1 and 140.4 ± 24.7

conclusionCollectively, these results suggest that SFSGs can significantly delay DKD progression and inhibit injury to the glycocalyx and the endothelial-mesenchymal transition of glomerular endothelial cells. This mechanism is related to
