Protective Role of Sulodexide on Renal Injury Induced by Limb Ischemia-Reperfusion.

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.
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
backgroundThough widely known as a potent antithrombin agent with protective effects on the kidney and other remote organs, it is currently ambiguous when it comes to sulodexide's function on ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. With this research, we pursued to further explore how sulodexide exerts its influence on limb I/R injury, in which deleterious effects on the kidney were what we primarily focused on.
methodsWe randomized twenty-four C57BL/6 male rats into three groups, namely, sham operation group (control group), I/R group, and sulodexide pretreatment group. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was applied for discovery of renal histological changes. Serum creatinine (Cr) and serum urea nitrogen (BUN) were measured. Apoptotic parameters were detected by the TdT-mediated dUTP Nick-End Labeling method. To what extent and levels that antiapoptotic and proapoptotic proteins were expressed could be sensitively revealed by immunohistochemistry assay. Lipid peroxidation product propylene glycol and inflammatory factors were examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Additionally, an extracorporeal hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) model of human renal proximal tubule epithelial HK2 cells was established. Our targets lay in cell proliferation and apoptosis, and we used western blotting to reflect apoptosis-related gene expression.
resultsThe levels of serum BUN, Cr, and inflammatory factors in sulodexide-intervened rats manifested significant reduction when compared with the I/R group. Also, sulodexide could protect the kidney from histological changes and could effectively inhibit intraparenchymal apoptosis. Furthermore, adding 2
conclusionSulodexide can protect against kidney damage caused by I/R injury of the lower limbs by enhancing cell proliferation, inhibiting apoptosis, reducing inflammatory reactions, and scavenging oxygen free radicals.
