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

Macrophages play a critical role in injury and repair following acute kidney injury (AKI), but their regulatory mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Cellular communication network factor 1 (CCN1), a secreted matricellular protein and early biomarker of AKI, may regulate macrophage function during kidney injury. In this study, we first investigated CCN1's interaction with macrophages in a murine model of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R)-induced AKI. The role of CCN1 was further investigated using recombinant protein administration, a renal tubular epithelial cell (RTEC)-specific CCN1 knockdown mouse model via adeno-associated virus, and in vitro studies with bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs). We found that in response to injury, RTECs upregulated and secreted CCN1, which colocalized with infiltrating F4/80
