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

backgroundLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can regulate the progression of DN. This research aimed to study the effect of lncRNA KCNQ1OT1 on the oxidative stress and pyroptosis of the renal tubular epithelial cells induced by high glucose (HG).

methodsRT-qPCR analysis detected the KCNQ1OT1 expression in serum with DN and HG-induced HK-2 cells, detect the expression of NLRP3, cleaved-caspase1, P-caspase1, IL-1β, p-IL-1β and GSDMD-N in HG-induced HK-2 cells, and confirm the transfection effects. The expression of NLRP3, cleaved-caspase1, P-caspase1, IL-1β, p-IL-1β and GSDMD-N in HG-induced HK-2 cells was also analyzed by Western blot analysis. ELISA assay detected the levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and MCP-1. The levels of ROS, MDA and SOD were determined by respective ELISA kits and ROS was also detected by the ROS assay kit (containing DCFH-DA).

resultsWe found that KCNQ1OT1 was increased in the plasma of patients with DN and HG-induced HK-2 cells and KCNQ1OT1 interference could decrease the inflammation, oxidative stress and pyroptosis of HG-induced HK-2 cells. In addition, KCNQ1OT1 directly targets miR-506-3p. MiR-506-3p was downregulated in the plasma of patients with DN and HG-induced HK-2 cells and KCNQ1OT1 interference promoted the expression of miR-506-3p. MiR-506-3p overexpression suppressed the inflammation, oxidative stress and pyroptosis of HG-induced HK-2 cells.

conclusionThis study demonstrated that downregulation of KCNQ1OT1 inhibited the inflammation, oxidative stress and pyroptosis of HG-induced HK-2 cells by up-regulating the expression of miR-506-3p, which provide new insights into the treatment of DN.
