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

objectiveThe present study evaluated the nephroprotective effects of anhuienoside C (AC) against diabetic nephropathy (DN) in rats. MATERIAL AND

methodsDiabetic nephropathy was induced by administration of a high-fat diet (HFD) for 8 weeks and intraperitoneal administration of streptozotocin (STZ; 30 mg/kg) at the end of the fourth week of this protocol. Effects of AC on blood glucose levels, renal function markers, and mediators of inflammation in the serum of DN rats were assessed.

resultsAnhuienoside C treatment reduced the blood glucose levels and attenuated the increased levels of renal injury markers in DN rats. Anhuienoside C also increased podocyte counts; alleviated the changes in podocin, desmin, and nephrin protein levels; and ameliorated the altered pathophysiology in the kidney tissues induced by DN. Compared with the DN group, the levels of inflammatory markers and mediators of oxidative stress were reduced in the serum and kidney tissues of the AC-treated groups. Moreover, treatment with AC ameliorates the altered expression of podocin, nephrin, and desmin proteins in the renal tissue of HFD/STZ-induced kidney-injured rats.

conclusionIn conclusion, AC protected against podocyte injury by regulating nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells/protein kinase B pathway in a rat model of DN.
