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

The aim of this study is to evaluate the anti-diabetic nephropathy effect of Caffeic acid and to prove our hypothesis for its mechanism of action that it may occur by reactivation of autophagy pathway via suppression of autophagy regulatory miRNAs. In vivo, high-fat diet and streptozotocin-induced (HFD-STZ) diabetic rats were treated with Caffeic acid once per day for 12 weeks before and after development of diabetic nephropathy. Blood and urine biochemical parameters, autophagy transcripts and their epigenetic regulators together with renal tissue morphology were investigated. In diabetic rats, Caffeic acid intake, caused improvement in albumin excretion,blood glucose, reduced renal mesangial matrix extension with increased vacuolation and reappearance of autophagosomes. Meanwhile, it resulted in autophagy genes up-regulation [RB 1-inducible coiled coil protein (RB1CC1), Microtubule-associated proteins 1A/1B light chain 3(MAP1LC3B), Autophagy related gene (ATG-12),] with simultaneous reduction in their epigenetic regulators; miRNA-133b, -342 and 30a, respectively. These above mentioned effects were more significant in the diabetic nephropathy Caffeic treated rats than in the prophylactic group. Based on our results we postulated that caffeic acid modulates autophagy pathway through inhibition of autophagy regulatory miRNAs, that could explain its curative properties against diabetic kidney disease.
