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

backgroundCisplatin could result in a wide range of kidney injuries. During the pathogenetic process, the excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by cisplatin has been regarded as the initial and critical role, by which DNA damage and cell death could subsequently come up. Therefore the elimination of ROS has long been considered as effective mean to prevent cisplatin-induced kidney injury. Myricitrin is a newfound natural polyphenol hydroxy flavonoid glycoside compound, whose forceful anti-oxidative properties had been confirmed. Thus, we aim to investigate if myricitrin could protect against cisplatin-induced kidney injury.

methodsA cisplatin-induced kidney injury model was established in mice by intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin. The protective effect of myricitrin on kidney injury was evaluated by serum BUN and Cre level. The Kidney pathology was observed with H&E and TUNEL staining. Then cell viability and apoptosis rate were measured using MMT assay and flow cytometry to assess if myricitrin could protect KH-2 cells against cisplatin-induced injury. The intracellular ROS was detected by ROS fluorogenic probe and quantitatively analyzed by flow cytometry. Finally, the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax was investigated by western blotting to indicate the influence in apoptosis pathway.

resultsMyricitrin could significantly remit kidney injury induced by cisplatin and inhibit apoptosis of KH-2 cells. In mechanism, myricitrin could eliminate ROS and subsequently block activation of apoptosis pathway.

conclusionMyricitrin protects against cisplatin-induced kidney injury by eliminating excessive ROS.
