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

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious problem in critically ill patients of intensive care units. It has been reported previously that AKI can induce acute lung injury (ALI), as well as cause injuries to other remote organs, including the lungs. Patients with AKI complicated by ALI show remarkably high mortality. ALI is characterized by neutrophil infiltration into the lung. Neutrophil elastase (NE) is a key enzyme for tissue injury caused by activated neutrophils, such as occurs in ALI. Therefore, this study investigated the role of NE in AKI-induced ALI using a specific NE inhibitor, sivelestat sodium hydrate (ONO-5046), in a mouse bilateral nephrectomy model. Bilateral nephrectomy showed not only a remarkable increase in blood urea nitrogen levels, but also demonstrated neutrophil infiltration into the lung, increased pulmonary inflammatory cytokine expression [interleukin-6, neutrophil chemokine keratinocyte-derived chemokine, and tumor necrosis factor-α], and protein leakage with early increases in both systemic and pulmonary NE activity. ONO-5046 treatment reduced NE activity and improved these pulmonary inflammatory responses. Additionally, ONO-5046-treated animals had longer survival times. These data demonstrate that increasing NE activity induces pulmonary inflammatory damage in a bilateral nephrectomy model. Blockade of NE activity will be a useful therapeutic strategy for ALI complications in AKI patients.
