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

backgroundThis study aimed to elucidate the early involvement of T lymphocytes in renal ischemia/reperfusion injury.

methodsAthymic nude rats (F344/N_Jcl-nu) and control F344/Jcl were subjected to 45 min unilateral renal ischemia. To determine whether the observed differences might be derived from the T lymphocyte presence, T lymphocytes from the spleens of F344/Jcl were injected into F344/N_Jcl-nu via tail vein at the initiation of reperfusion. Immunohistochemical analysis was performed for CD3, the proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), vimentin, and E-cadherin. T lymphocytes were obtained from the green fluorescent protein transgenic (GFP) rats, and transplanted to F344/N_Jcl-nu 10 min before reperfusion. The animals were euthanized 15 min after reperfusion.

resultsF344/N_Jcl-nu showed less retention of both Cr and BUN at 24 and 48 h after reperfusion, compared with F344/Jcl. F344/N_Jcl-nu received T lymphocyte transplantation showed significantly higher retention of both Cr and BUN 24, 48, and 72 h after reperfusion than those without T lymphocyte. A rapid infiltration of T lymphocytes into proximal tubular epithelial cells and tubular lumen was observed using T lymphocytes with green fluorescent protein. In contrast, T lymphocytes were observed with much less frequency 24 h after ischemia. The number of PCNA-positive proximal tubular cells 24 h after the initiation of reperfusion was significantly smaller in the T lymphocyte transplantation group compared with the non-transplantation group. The vimentin positivity and cytoplasmic staining of E-cadherin were also more prominent in the transplantation group.

conclusionThese findings demonstrate a rapid renal T lymphocyte infiltration, which propagate renal functional deterioration.
