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

This study aimed to investigate the role of GTS-21 in cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway-mediated protection of LPS-induced septic renal injury in mice. C57BL/6 mice were used to construct septic injury models. The optimal duration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment was determined using HE staining and TUNEL assay. Mice injected with saline were used as blank control and with LPS (10 mg/kg) as model, which were further treated with α-bungarotoxin (BT-LPS), GTS-21 (GTS-21-LPS) and BT and GTS-21 (BT-GTS-21-LPS). The pathological examinations were performed on HE stained renal tissues, apoptosis was determined using TUNEL assay, mRNA expression of NF-kB p65, Caspase-3, Caspase-8, Bcl-2, Bax, p53 and a7nACh was quantified using qRT-PCR, protein levels of IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α and phosphorylated STAT3 (p-STAT3) were analyzed using Western blots. HE staining and TUNEL assays showed that the optimal LPS treatment time for renal injury induction was 16 h. Compared with the blank control, mice in LPS group had significantly higher levels of NF-Kb p65, Caspase-3, Caspase-8, Bax, p53, IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α and p-STAT3, while α7nAChR and Bcl-2 levels were decreased significantly (
