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

Dexamethasone (DEX), a ligand for glucocorticoid receptor (GR), has long been used in the clinical practice due to its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. Given that ischemia/reperfusion (IR)-induced renal injury is featured by the excessive immune response; the current study is therefore designed to address the impact of dexamethasone on IR-induced renal injury, a common disorder in the clinical settings. Precondition of mice with 4 mg/kg of dexamethasone significantly attenuated IR-induced injury as manifested by the improved renal function along with ameliorated pathological changes and suppressed inflammatory infiltration. Mechanistic studies revealed that dexamethasone promotes GR activation, and by which it attenuates the signals for PI3K/AKT activation. Attenuated PI3K/AKT signaling thus suppresses inflammatory response which then protects kidneys from IR-induced injury. All together, our data support that dexamethasone could be a good alternative therapy for prevention and treatment of IR-induced renal injury in the clinical practice.
