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

Circular RNA YAP1 (circYAP1) was reported to participate in progression of gastric cancer. However, the role of circYAP1 in acute kidney injury (AKI) remains obscure. We attempted to examine the effects of circYAP1 on ischaemia/reperfusion-stimulated renal injury. AKI model was established by treating HK-2 cells in ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) environment. CircYAP1 expression in blood of AKI patients and I/R-treated HK-2 cells was evaluated via RT-qPCR. CCK-8, flow cytometry, ELISA and ROS assay were executed to test the impact of circYAP1 on cell viability, apoptosis, inflammatory cytokines and ROS generation. Bioinformatic analysis was executed to explore miRNA targets. The relativity between circYAP1 and miR-21-5p was verified by RT-qPCR and luciferase assay. The functions of miR-21-5p in I/R-triggered injury were reassessed. PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway was detected by Western blot. Down-regulated circYAP1 was observed in AKI blood samples and I/R-treated HK-2 cells. CircYAP1 overexpression expedited cell growth and weakened secretion of inflammatory factors and ROS generation in I/R-disposed cells. Besides, we found circYAP1 could sponge to miR-21-5p. Interestingly, miR-21-5p overexpression overturned the repressive effects of circYAP1 on cell injury. Moreover, PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway was activated by circYAP1 via inhibiting miR-21-5p. We demonstrated that circYAP1 activated PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and secured HK-2 cells from I/R injury via sponging miR-21-5p.
