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

Cisplatin is a widely used chemotherapeutic drug with notorious toxicity in the kidneys, which involves mitochondrial dysfunction and damage in renal tubular cells. Mitophagy is a form of selective autophagy that removes damaged or dysfunctional mitochondria to maintain cellular homeostasis. In this study, we have used mouse and cell models to examine the role and regulation of mitophagy in cisplatin nephrotoxicity. Cisplatin treatment was associated with the activation of autophagy and mitophagy. Rapamycin, a pharmacological inhibitor of mTOR, stimulated autophagy and mitophagy, and alleviated the development of cisplatin nephrotoxicity. PINK1 and Parkin were increased in kidney tissues during cisplatin treatment of mice. In PINK1 or Parkin gene knockout mouse models, both basal and cisplatin-induced mitophagy in kidneys were defective. Compared with wild-type littermates, PINK1 and Parkin knockout mice showed more severe renal functional loss, tissue damage, and apoptosis during cisplatin treatment. The results suggest that PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy is activated in cisplatin nephrotoxicity and has a protective role against kidney injury.
