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

Diabetic patients are more susceptible to renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury (RI/RI) and have a poor prognosis, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. The present study aimed to examine whether diabetes could worsen acute kidney injury induced by I/R in rats and clarify its mechanism. Control and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats were subjected to 45 min renal pedicle occlusion followed by 24 h reperfusion. Tert-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ, 16.7 mg/kg) was administrated intraperitoneally 3 times at intervals of 8 h before ischemia. Serum and kidneys were harvested after reperfusion to evaluate renal function and histological injury. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to test pro-inflammatory cytokines. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl-transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling assays were used to detect apoptotic cells, and western blotting was performed to determine the expression of B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax), and cleaved caspase-3, as well as oxidative stress and inflammation-related proteins, such as nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB). Compared with control animals, diabetic rats undergoing I/R exhibited more severe tubular damage and renal dysfunction. Diabetes exacerbated oxidative stress, the inflammatory response, and apoptosis after renal I/R by enhancing TLR4/NF-κB signaling and blocking the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway. RI/RI in diabetic rats was attenuated by pretreatment with TBHQ (a Nrf2 agonist), which exerted anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic properties by inhibiting NF-κB signaling. These findings indicate that hyperglycemia exacerbates RI/RI by intensifying oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis. Antioxidant pretreatment may alleviate RI/RI in diabetic patients.
