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

We sought to determine the effects of selenium (Se) on acrylamide (ACR)-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. In our study, 50 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 200-250 g were randomly divided into five groups. The control group was given intra-gastric (i.g.) saline (1 mL) for 10 days. The ACR group was given i.g. ACR in saline (38.27 mg/kg titrated to 1 mL) for 10 days. The Se0.5 + ACR and Se1 + ACR groups were administered Se in saline (0.5 and 1 mg/kg, respectively) for 10 days and given i.g. ACR (38.27 mg/kg) one hour after the Se injections. The Se1 group was administered i.g. Se (1 mg/kg) for 10 days. On day 11, intracardiac blood samples were obtained from the rats while they were under anesthesia, after which they were euthanized by decapitation. Urea and creatinine concentrations of blood serum samples were analyzed with an autoanalyzer. Enzyme-linked immunosorbence immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to quantify malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), catalase (CAT), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), interleukin (IL)-33, IL-6, IL-1β, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), mitogen-activated protein kinase-1 (MAPK-1), and caspase-3 in kidney tissues. Renal tissues were evaluated by histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations for 8-hydroxylo-2'-deoxyguanosin 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OhDG) and Bax. Serum urea and creatinine levels were higher in the ACR group than in the control, and these ACR-induced increases were prevented by high doses of Se. Additionally, ACR induced the renal oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, and damage to DNA and tissue; likewise, these were prevented by high doses of Se. Taken with ACR, Se confers protection against ACR-induced nephrotoxicity in rats by reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, and DNA damage.
