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

Sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) represents a severe medical complication. Recently, there is growing evidence indicating the regulatory role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in AKI pathophysiology. The present study investigated lncRNA DLX6 antisense RNA 1 (DLX6-AS1) expression in septic AKI patients and to decipher the relevant mechanisms underlying DLX6-AS1-mediated HK-2 cell pyroptosis in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced AKI. The results revealed that DLX6-AS1 was up-regulated in the serum from septic AKI patients. DLX6-AS1 expression were positively associated with the creatinine levels in the serum from the septic AKI patients. In vitro studies showed that LPS induced cytotoxicity and enhanced DLX6-AS1 expression of HK-2 cells; increased NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3), interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 expression. DLX6-AS1 overexpression promoted cytotoxicity and pyroptosis of HK-2 cells; while DLX6-AS1 knockdown counteracted the LPS-induced cytotoxicity and pyroptosis of HK-2 cells. More importantly, DLX6-AS1 sponged miR-223-3p resulting in repression of miR-223-3p expression in HK-2 cells. MiR-223-3p could bind to the 3' untranslated region of NLRP3, which results in the suppressed NLRP3 expression of HK-2 cells. Further rescue experiments showed that enhanced miR-223-3p expression partially reversed the cytotoxicity and pyroptosis of HK-2 cells upon LPS stimulation or with DLX6-AS1 overexpression. Conclusively, this study identified enhanced DLX6-AS1 expression in the serum from AKI patients. Further mechanistic findings deciphered that DLX6-AS1 mediated LPS-mediated cytotoxicity and pyroptosis in HK-2 via miR-223-3p/NLRP3 axis.
