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

Modulation of nitric oxide activity through blockade of CD47 signaling has been shown to reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in various models of tissue ischemia. Here, we evaluate the potential effect of an antibody-mediated CD47 blockade in a syngeneic and an allogeneic DCD rat kidney transplant model. The donor organ was subjected to 1 hour of warm ischemia time after circulatory cessation, then flushed with a CD47 monoclonal antibody (CD47mAb) in the treatment group, or an isotype-matched immunoglobulin in the control group. We found that CD47mAb treatment improved survival rates in both models. Serum markers of renal injury were significantly decreased in the CD47mAb-treated group compared with the control group. Histologically the CD47mAb-treated group had significantly reduced scores of acute tubular injury and acute tubular necrosis. The expression of biomarkers related to mitochondrial stress and apoptosis also were significantly lower in the CD47mAb-treated groups. Overall, the protective effects of CD47 blockade were greater in the syngeneic model. Our data show that CD47mAb blockade decreased the IRI of DCD kidneys in rat transplant models. This therapy has the potential to improve DCD kidney transplant outcomes in the human setting.
