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 kidney T lymphocytes emerge as central agents in both physiological surveillance and pathological processes. In this study, we aimed to establish an optimized protocol for isolating and purifying T lymphocytes from mouse and human kidneys to provide support for renal diseases research. To develop an optimized protocol, we evaluated different tissue fragmentation strategies, enzymatic digestion conditions, digestion times and Percoll density gradients to maximize cell yield and viability while preserving surface markers. Subsequently, we applied this method to various kidney disease models and performed single-cell sequencing analysis by using public database. Our analyses revealed mechanical mincing combined with 0.2% collagenase IV and 0.02% DNase I for 45 min, followed by 33-80% Percoll gradient centrifugation, yielded the highest number of viable mononuclear cells with preserved surface markers. This protocol outperformed mechanical grinding and high concentration collagenase digestion, which caused greater mechanical and chemical damage. Flow cytometry confirmed optimal isolation of CD4
