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

Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) is an angiogenic growth factor involved in renal growth and regeneration. Previous studies in rodents revealed that single intrarenal injections of FGF-2 improved the outcome of acute kidney injury (AKI). Septic children usually show elevated plasma levels of FGF-2, and are at risk of developing AKI. However, the role of circulating FGF-2 in the pathogenesis of AKI is not well understood. We have developed a mouse model to determine how FGF-2 released into the circulation modulates the outcome of AKI induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Young FVB/N mice were infected with adenoviruses carrying a secreted form of human FGF-2 or control LacZ vectors. Subsequently, when the circulating levels of FGF-2 were similar to those seen in septic children, mice were injected with a non-lethal dose of LPS or control buffer. All mice injected with LPS developed hypotension and AKI, from which they recovered after 5 days. FGF-2 did not improve the outcome of AKI, and induced more significant renal proliferative and apoptotic changes during the recovery phase. These findings suggest that circulating FGF-2 may not necessarily prevent the development or improve the outcome of AKI. Moreover, the renal accumulation of FGF-2 might cause further renal damage.
