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

Renal aging shortens healthspan and propagates organ dysfunction beyond the kidney, yet its molecular drivers remain incompletely defined. Here we identify microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-2 (mPGES-2) as a critical regulator of renal aging and its skeletal consequence. Genetic ablation of Ptges2 improved health indices in aged mice, prolonged median survival, and markedly alleviated glomerulosclerosis, podocyte injury, and renal senescence. Single-cell transcriptomic analysis, together with podocyte- and tubule-specific knockout models, showed that podocyte mPGES-2, rather than tubular mPGES-2, is the dominant intrarenal driver of aging-related kidney injury. Mechanistically, mPGES-2 promoted podocyte senescence through a PGE
