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

backgroundRenal denervation (RDN) has been used to promote kidney injury repair, whereas miRNAs have been found to be involved in the pathophysiology of renal injury. However, the miRNA alterations that occur after RDN and the related protective mechanisms remain to be determined.

methodsRenal ischemic reperfusion injury (IRI) rat model was established and RDN was performed. Animals were killed at 24 h and 2 weeks following the operation. Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) levels, renal function, tubular cell apoptosis and histological sections were examined at 24 h, whereas renal fibrosis and capillary vessels were assessed at 2 weeks. Furthermore, the expression of miRNAs in the injured kidney was determined using micro-array and the target genes were analyzed.

resultsWe found that TH was eliminated and that renal function was improved in the denervation group at 24 h. RDN reduced tubular cell apoptosis and mitigated the histological lesion. Furthermore, an increase of capillary vessel density and reduction of renal fibrosis were observed after 2 weeks. Moreover, the numbers of miRNAs were up-regulated after RDN treatment, and the miRNAs targeted pro-angiogenic, anti-fibrotic and inflammatory pathways.

conclusionsRDN is a reliable method for alleviating IRI-induced acute and chronic kidney injury, and modulating the miRNA-related pro-angiogenic, anti-fibrotic or inflammatory pathways involved in this process.
