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

aimExertional heastroke (EHS) can lead to acute kidney injury. Oral rehydration solution III (ORS III), recommended by WHO in 2004, is used to rehydrate children with gastroenteritis. This study aimed to characterize the renoprotective effect of ORS III in EHS rats.

methodsRats were randomly divided into Group Control, Group EHS, Group EHS + Water, and Group EHS + ORS. Thirty minutes before the experiment, ORS III was orally administrated to Group EHS + ORS, Water was given to Group EHS + Water. Rats from Group EHS, Group EHS + Water and Group EHS + ORS were then forced to run until they fatigued. Core temperature (Tc) was monitored and 40.5 °C was considered as the onset of heatstroke. Serum creatinine (SCr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were measured using an automated biochemical analyzer. Serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) was measured using an NGAL ELISA Kit. Light microscopy was used for kidney structural analysis.

resultsSCr level in Group EHS was no different from Group Control (p > .05), while BUN and NGAL levels in Group EHS were higher than Group Control (p <.001, p < .001). SCr, BUN and NGAL concentrations in group EHS + Water were no different from Group EHS (p > .05). SCr, BUN levels in Group EHS + ORS were no different from Group EHS (p > .05). But NGAL levels were significant in these two groups (p = .012). Renal histopathologies of rats in Group EHS and Group EHS + Water showed flattened lumens filled with eosinophilic materials. The damage was milder in Group EHS + ORS, in which injured tubules showed degeneration of the tubular epithelium and sloughing of the brush border membrane.

conclusionORS III could alleviate the kidney injury in EHS rats.
