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

Reticulophagy is a key process to recovery from endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and for maintaining ER homeostasis by selectively removing damaged ER and its components. However, its precise mechanisms in diabetic nephropathy (DN) remain unclear. Here, we found that the expression of RETREG1/FAM134B (reticulophagy regulator 1) was decreased in the tubular cells in DN patients and animal models, which was positively correlated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and negatively associated with tubulointerstitial damage. Proximal tubule-specific knockout of
