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

Sepsis is characterized by a severe inflammatory response throughout the whole body and can induce acute kidney injury (AKI). This research aimed to investigate the regulatory mechanisms underlying miR-155-5p in sepsis-induced AKI. CLP-treated mice were used as an in vivo model of sepsis-induced AKI, and LPS-treated HK-2 and TCMK-1 cells were used as in vitro models. Bioinformatics analyses and mechanistic assays were utilized to reveal the relationships between molecules. H&E staining was used to reveal morphological changes in kidney tissues. ELISAs were conducted to detect the concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines. We discovered that miR-155-5p was prominently upregulated in sepsis-induced AKI in vivo and in vitro. MiR-155-5p inhibition alleviated kidney injury in mice. Moreover, WWC1 served as a direct target of miR-155-5p and was negatively regulated by miR-155-5p. WWC1 upregulation inhibited the productions of inflammatory cytokines and suppressed apoptosis in vivo and in vitro. In addition, rescue assays demonstrated that WWC1 knockdown counteracted the inhibitory effect of anti-miR-155-5p on inflammation and apoptosis. Moreover, miR-155-5p could bind to XIST. XIST expression was downregulated in LPS-stimulated HK-2 and TCMK-1 cells. XIST could negatively regulate miR-155-5p expression and positively regulate WWC1 expression. Rescue assays revealed that miR-155-5p overexpression significantly reversed the suppressive effects of XIST upregulation on inflammation and apoptosis. In conclusion, our study revealed that the XIST/miR-155-5p/WWC1 axis modulated sepsis-induced AKI progression, providing promising insight into therapeutic targets for sepsis-induced AKI.
