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

Ferroptosis is a non-traditional form of regulated cell death, characterized by iron overload and lipid peroxidation. Exploration of ferroptosis in chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been extremely limited to date. In this study, we established a rat model of CKD by 5/6 nephrectomy, treated CKD rats with the ferroptosis inducer, cisplatin (CDDP), and the ferroptosis inhibitor, deferoxamine mesylate (DFO), and observed the resulting pathologic changes (injury markers and fibrosis) and ferroptotic biochemical indices. Kidney iron deposition, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial defects, ferroptosis marker induction, and TUNEL staining positivity were detected in CKD group rats. Further, treatment with CDDP or DFO influenced renal injury and fibrosis by affecting ferroptosis, rather than apoptosis, and ferroptosis occurs in the remnant kidney due to disordered iron metabolism. In conclusion, our study shows for the first time that 5/6 nephrectomy induces ferroptosis in the remnant kidney and clarifies the underlying pathogenesis. Moreover, we demonstrate that ferroptosis is involved in CKD progression and represents a therapeutic target in chronic kidney injury and renal fibrosis.
