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

We showed previously that a 28-day combined dietary exposure to melamine and cyanuric acid (MEL&CYA) induced kidney lesions in NCTR Fisher 344 (F344) rats. Histopathological changes were significant in females dosed with ≥240 ppm MEL&CYA and in males dosed with ≥180 ppm MEL&CYA; however, the nephrotoxicity biomarkers blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCr) were increased only by ≥240 ppm MEL&CYA. The serum miRNome has been reported to reflect toxicity of several organs, including the kidney. Here, we compared the dose-response of alterations in serum miRNAs to those of BUN, SCr, and kidney histopathology in rats co-exposed to MEL&CYA. The serum miRNome of male F344 rats dosed with 0, 180, or 240 ppm MEL&CYA was screened using quantitative real-time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) and the levels of selected serum miRNAs were analyzed further in both sexes over the full dose range. The levels of several miRNAs were significantly reduced in rats treated with 240 ppm MEL&CYA versus control. In addition, miR-128-3p and miR-210-3p were decreased in males treated with 180pm MEL&CYA, a dose at which the levels of BUN and SCr were not yet affected by treatment. These data suggest that the serum miRNome is affected by nephrotoxic doses of MEL&CYA in male and female rats.
