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

Several studies have suggested that long intergenic noncoding RNAs are involved in the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN). However, the exact role and regulatory mechanism of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) NR_038323 in diabetic nephropathy (DN) remain largely unclear. In the present study, we found that lncRNA NR_038323 overexpression ameliorated the high glucose (HG)-induced expression levels of collagen I, collagen IV, and fibronectin, whereas lncRNA NR_038323 knockdown exerted the opposite effects. Moreover, the results of bioinformatic prediction, luciferase assay, and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) demonstrated that lncRNA NR_038323 directly interacted with miR-324-3p. Additionally, miR-324-3p mimic aggravated the HG-induced expression levels of collagen I, collagen IV, and fibronectin by dual-specificity protein phosphatase-1 (DUSP1) expression to activate p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and ERK1/2 pathways. In contrast, overexpression of DUSP1 attenuated the HG-induced expression levels of collagen I, collagen IV, and fibronectin via inactivation of p38 MAPK and ERK1/2 pathways. In addition, lncRNA NR_038323 knockdown increased the expression levels of collagen I, collagen IV, and fibronectin by upregulating DUSP1 expression during HG treatment, which were markedly reversed by miR-324-3p inhibitor. Furthermore, these molecular changes were verified in the human kidney samples of DN patients. Finally, overexpression of lncRNA NR_038323 ameliorated the interstitial fibrosis in STZ-induced diabetic nephrology (DN) rat via miR-324-3p/DUSP1/p38MAPK and ERK1/2 axis. In conclusion, our data indicate that overexpression of lncRNA NR_038323 may suppress HG-induced renal fibrosis via the miR-324-3p/DUSP1/p38MAPK and ERK1/2 axis, which provides new insights into the pathogenesis of DN.
