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

backgroundRenal interstitial fibrosis (RIF) is a common pathway for progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) to end-stage renal disease. In our previous study, it has been provided that renalase can ameliorate renal interstitial fibrosis in unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) rats. The other mechanism of renalase to alleviate renal fibrosis should be explored. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this study, we evaluated the role of oxidative stress in UUO rats and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in human proximal renal tubular epithelial (HK-2) cells and examined the association of renalase.

resultsOxidative stress could induce EMT and fibrosis in HK-2 cells. In the UUO model, oxidative stress occurred and maintained at a high level leading to RIF. Administration of renalase by adenovirus significantly attenuated oxidative stress and further in vitro study showed that renalase can exert anti-fibrosis by inhibiting oxidative stress.

conclusionOur results prompt another mechanism of anti-fibrotic renal protection of renalase, which may be partly associated with inhibiting oxidative stress. These data provided another theoretical basis that supplementation with exogenous renalase may be a promising strategy for slowing or halting the progression of CKD.
