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

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the primary cause of end-stage renal disease worldwide. Recent studies have revealed that lactate-mediated histone lactylation, which functions as a novel epigenetic modification, is involved in the occurrence and development of diabetes-related complications. However, little is known about the role of lactyltransferase in DN. Alanyl-tRNA synthetase 1 (AARS1) was identified as a novel lactyltransferase that modulates histone H3-lysine-18 lactylation (H3K18la). In the present study, we determined whether AARS1-mediated H3K18la participates in the pathogenesis of DN. More importantly, we explored the potential mechanism involved. A mouse DN model consisting of both wild-type and alanyl-tRNA synthetase (AARS1) heterozygote (AARS1
