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

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious complication of sepsis that increases mortality and the risk of progression to chronic kidney disease. Oxidative stress and apoptosis are reported to exert critical function in the pathogenesis of sepsis-associated AKI. Calcium dobesilate (CaD) was reported to play a protective role in renal diseases. Therefore, we explored the antioxidant effect and potential mechanism of CaD in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced AKI in mice. We evaluated renal function (blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SCr)), histopathology, oxidative stress (superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA)), inflammation cytokines, and apoptosis in kidneys of mice. The effect of CaD on NF-κB signaling was evaluated by Western blot. Our findings showed that CaD alleviated renal dysfunction and kidney injury, and also reversed upregulated MDA concentration and reduced SOD enzyme activity in AKI mice. Moreover, LPS-induced inflammatory response was attenuated by CaD. CaD treatment also reduced the apoptosis evoked by LPS. Additionally, CaD downregulated phosphorylation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling components in LPS mice. Conclusively, CaD alleviates renal dysfunction and inflammation by targeting NF-κB signaling in sepsis-associated AKI.
