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

Pyroptosis is one special type of lytic programmed cell death, featured in cell swelling, rupture, secretion of cell contents and remarkable proinflammation effect. In the process of pyroptosis, danger signalling and cellular events are detected by inflammasome, activating caspases and cleaving Gasdermin D (GSDMD), along with the secretion of IL-18 and IL-1β. Pyroptosis can be divided into canonical pathway and non-canonical pathway, and NLRP3 inflammasome is the most important initiator. Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is one of the most serious microvascular complications in diabetes. Current evidence reported the stimulatory role of hyperglycaemia-induced cellular stress in renal cell pyroptosis, and different signalling pathways have been shown to regulate pyroptosis initiation. Additionally, the inflammation and cellular injury caused by pyroptosis are tightly implicated in DKD progression, aggravating renal fibrosis, glomerular sclerosis and tubular injury. Some registered hypoglycaemia agents exert suppressive activity in pyroptosis regulation pathway. Latest studies also reported some potential approaches to target the pyroptosis pathway, which effectively inhibits renal cell pyroptosis and alleviates DKD in in vivo or in vitro models. Therefore, comprehensively compiling the information associated with pyroptosis regulation in DKD is the main aim of this review, and we try to provide new insights for researchers to dig out more potential therapies of DKD.
