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

objectiveAcute kidney injury (AKI) is referred to as sudden decline in the function of kidney. Human endometrial stromal/stem cells (hEnSCs) are mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-like cells, which are suitable candidates for regenerative medicine purposes, yet the effect of hEnSCs on cisplatin-induced AKI has not been studied; therefore, the present study was conducted to investigate this gap in the literature. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this experimental study, hEnSCs were obtained from endometrial biopsy using collagenase I and were then cultured in DMEM/F12 medium. A total of 48 male Wistar rats (150-200 g) were classified into four groups: intact -receiving no treatment, model -receiving 5 mg/kg of body weight cisplatin, as well as phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and cell -receiving either PBS or hEnSCs for three hours after cisplatin injection, respectively. Biochemical parameters, pathologic scores, apoptosis assay,

resultsOn day 5 post-transplantation we observed that HEnSCs injection has led to a decrease in both blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCr), compared to the model and PBS groups (0.82 ± 0.03 vs. 1.42 ± 0.06, 1.09 ± 0.05 mg/dl and 61.53 ± 3.07 vs. 116.60 ± 2.12, 112.00 ± 1.35 mg/dl, respectively). The highest levels of pathologic scores were observed in model and PBS groups, while hEnSCs transplantation resulted in a decrease in pathologic scores (149.10 ± 7.03, 141.50 ± 4.68 vs. 118 ± 2.16). HEnSCs significantly decreased the percentage of TUNELpositive cells in the cell group compared with model and PBS groups (20.37 ±. 3.37 vs. 33.67 ± 1.79, 31.53 ± 1.05 in glomeruli and 15.10 ± 1.47 vs. 42.33 ± 1.72, 39.23 ± 1.61 in tubules). In addition, HEnSCs resulted in upregulation of

conclusionOur results showed that injection of hEnSCs may improve AKI through lowering the amount of apoptosis in renal cells.
