Establishment of a rat autogenous arteriovenous fistula model following 5/6 nephrectomy.

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.
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
The aim of this study was to establish a stable rat model of autogenous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) with chronic renal function insufficiency. Forty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into an experimental group (n=20) and sham surgery group (n=20) and a 5/6 nephrectomy model was established in the rats. One week later, in the experimental group, the ipsilateral caroid artery was inserted into the external jugular vein by a cuff technique to establish a carotid arteriovenous fistula; in the sham group, the external jugular vein and carotid artery were dissociated. At 7 and 28 days following the establishment of the AVF, the renal functions of the two groups were measured. Hematoxylin and eosin staining and double collagen and elastin staining were conducted to evaluate the area of intimal hyperplasia in the external jugular vein, and the expression of α-smooth muscle actin in the vein was investigated by immunohistochemistry. The creatinine and urea nitrogen levels in the experimental group at each time-point were significantly higher than those in the sham surgery group (P<0.05). The intimal hyperplasia of the external jugular vein of the experimental group was increased significantly compared with that in the sham group at each time-point (P<0.05). The model, which is easy to establish and simple to master, provides a new and feasible experimental method for the study of intimal hyperplasia associated with autogenous AVF in chronic renal insufficiency, and is worthy of wider use.
