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

backgroundKrüppel-like factor 6 (KLF6) is a transcription factor that participate in various pathophysiological processes, but its contribution in ischemia acute kidney injury (AKI) is lacking so far. The study aimed to investigate the expression and the role of KLF6 in kidney ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury.

methodMicroarray data were collected from GSE58438 and GSE52004. The rat IR model was established to evaluate the mRNA and protein expression of KLF6 and inflammatory cytokines in serum and kidney tissues. SiRNA-KLF6 was transfected with HK-2 cells, and then a cell-based hypoxia-reoxygenation (HR) model was established.

resultsBioinformatics showed KLF6 mRNA in kidney tissue is up-regulated in 3 h after IR in rat kidney, which involved in cell activation, leukocyte activation, and response to hydrogen peroxide after IR. The rat IR model results showed that KLF6 expression was peaking at 6 h, and the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines MCP-1 and TNF-α was increased both in serum and kidney tissues, while anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 was decreased after IR. Furthermore,

conclusionThese results suggest that (1) KLF6 might be a novel biomarker for early diagnosis of AKI and (2) KLF6 may play a role in promoting inflammation in AKI.
