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

Acute and chronic kidney injuries are multifactorial traits that involve various risk factors. Experimental animal models are crucial to unravel important aspects of injury and its pathophysiological mechanisms. Translating knowledge obtained from experimental approaches into clinically useful information is difficult; therefore, significant attention needs to be paid to experimental procedures that mimic human disease. Herein, we compared aristolochic acid I (AAI) acute and chronic kidney injury model with unilateral ischemic-reperfusion injury (uIRI), cisplatin (CP)- or folic acid (FA)-induced renal damage. The administration of AAI showed significant changes in serum creatinine and BUN upon CKD. The number of neutrophils and macrophages were highly increased as well as AAI-induced CKD characterized by loss of tubular epithelial cells and fibrosis. The in vitro and in vivo data indicated that macrophages play an important role in the pathogenesis of AA-induced nephropathy (AAN) associated with an excessive macrophage accumulation and an alternative activated macrophage phenotype. Taken together, we conclude that AA-induced injury represents a suitable and relatively easy model to induce acute and chronic kidney injury. Moreover, our data indicate that this model is appropriate and superior to study detailed questions associated with renal macrophage phenotypes.
