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

purposeWe have recently reported lipopolysaccharide (LPS) pretreatment attenuated renal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI), but the exact mechanism remains to be well elucidated. It was reported that heat shock protein (Hsp) 27 was up-regulated after administration of LPS, but whether a direct link existed between Hsp27 up-regulation and LPS-induced protection against renal IRI is still unknown.

methodsMice were exposed to IRI or sham procedure, with pretreatment of LPS or not. Quercetin, an inhibitor of Hsp27 synthesis, was used, and an RNA interference with adenovirus vector using short hairpin RNA targeting Hsp27 was developed for inhibition of Hsp27 in mice. In addition, mice trans-infected with adenovirus vector encoding Hsp27 were used to testify the role of Hsp27 overexpression in LPS-induced renoprotection. Renal function, histological damage, inflammatory reaction, oxidative stress and apoptosis indices were measured. Western blot analysis was used to detect expression of Hsp27.

resultsWe found LPS pretreatment stimulated renal up-regulation of Hsp27 and reduced renal IRI proven by less renal dysfunction, histological damage, inflammatory reaction, oxidative stress and apoptosis. It was observed that inhibition of Hsp27 synthesis by Quercetin abolished LPS-induced renoprotective effects. After renal knockdown of Hsp27, LPS-induced tolerance against renal IRI was largely removed. Mice with Hsp27 overexpression showed significantly improved renal function after IRI and LPS combined with Hsp27 overexpression had a synergistic effect on protection against renal IRI.

conclusionAdministration of LPS produces protective effects against renal IRI via Hsp27 up-regulation. Preconditional Hsp27 up-regulation might have a great potential for the treatment of renal IRI via ameliorating apoptosis.
