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

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and serious complication of sepsis accompanied by kidney dysfunction resulting from various etiologies and pathophysiological processes. Unfortunately, there is currently no ideal therapeutic strategy for AKI. Numerous studies have confirmed that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important regulatory roles in the pathogenesis of sepsis-associated AKI. In this study, lncRNA TCONS_00016406 (termed lncRNA 6406), a novel lncRNA identified by using TargetScan, was significantly downregulated in the kidney tissues of mice with sepsis-associated AKI. This study aimed to explore the role of lncRNA 6406 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced AKI and its potential molecular mechanism. The models of sepsis-induced AKI (called LPS-induced AKI models) in mice and cell lines were established with male C57BL/6 mice and renal tubular epithelial (PTEC) cells, respectively. Twenty-four hours after LPS administration, kidneys and cell samples were collected after various treatments to examine the alterations in the lncRNA 6406 levels and to evaluate the effects on LPS-induced inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis through real-time PCR (RT-PCR) analysis, western blotting, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining. The results revealed that lncRNA 6406 could significantly attenuate LPS-induced AKI, as shown by the alleviation of inflammation, the suppression of oxidative stress and the inhibition of apoptosis. Mechanistically, a luciferase reporter assay and additional research showed that lncRNA 6406 functioned as a ceRNA to sponge miRNA-687, thereby modulating LPS-stimulated AKI by targeting the miR-687/PTEN axis; thus, this study presents a novel therapeutic strategy or sepsis-associated AKI.
