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

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a family of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) in the first line defense system of our bodies; they are widely expressed on leukocytes and kidney epithelial cells. Infections due to pathogens or danger signals from injured tissues often activate several TLRs and these receptors mediate their signal transduction through the activation of transcription factors that regulate the expression of cytokine interleukin-1β (IL-1β), type I interferons (IFNs), and nuclear factor kappa light chain enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) dependent cytokines and chemokines. Acute kidney injury (AKI) involves early Toll-like receptors driven immunopathology, while resolution of inflammation is needed for rapid regeneration of injured tubular cells. Despite their well known function in the progression of inflammation; interestingly, activation of TLRs also has been implicated in renal epithelial repair through the induction of certain interleukins and improvement in autophagy mechanism. Studies have found that although the blockade of TLRs during the early injury phase of renal tissues prevented tubular necrosis, suppression of interleukins production and impaired kidney regeneration due to their blockade has been observed during the healing phase of tissue. Taken together, these results suggest that the two danger response programs of renal cells i.e. renal inflammation and regeneration may link at the level of TLRs. This review aims to emphasize on the role of TLRs signaling in different acute kidney injury phases. Understanding of these pathways may turn out to be effective as therapeutic option for kidney diseases.
