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

The complement system is a potent mediator of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), which detrimentally affects the function and survival of transplanted kidneys. Human complement receptor 1 (HuCR1) is an integral membrane protein that inhibits complement activation by blocking the convertases that activate C3 and C5. We have previously reported that CSL040, a truncated form of recombinant soluble HuCR1 (sHuCR1), has enhanced complement inhibitory activity and improved pharmacokinetic properties compared to the parent molecule. Here, we compared the capacity of CSL040 and full-length sHuCR1 to suppress complement-mediated organ damage in a mouse model of warm renal IRI. Mice were treated with two doses of CSL040 or sHuCR1, given 1 h prior to 22 min unilateral renal ischemia and again 3 h later. 24 h after reperfusion, mice treated with CSL040 were protected against warm renal IRI in a dose-dependent manner, with the highest dose of 60 mg/kg significantly reducing renal dysfunction, tubular injury, complement activation, endothelial damage, and leukocyte infiltration. In contrast, treatment with sHuCR1 at a molar equivalent dose to 60 mg/kg CSL040 did not confer significant protection. Our results identify CSL040 as a promising therapeutic candidate to attenuate renal IRI and demonstrate its superior efficacy over full-length sHuCR1 in vivo.
