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

Moderate-intensity exercise training has been regarded a healthy way to alleviate kidney fibrosis by the transforming growth factor-beta (TGFβ) signaling pathway. However, the impact of different intensity exercise training on renal function is unknown, and the underlying mechanism is also unclear. The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of lactic acid in different intensity exercise training on renal fibrosis in spontaneous hypertension. Masson's trichrome staining, immunohistochemistry, lactic acid kit, and Western blotting were applied on the excised renal tissue from six male Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) and 18 male spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), which were randomly divided into a sedentary hypertensive group (SHR), moderate-intensity exercise hypertensive group (SHR-M), and high-intensity exercise hypertensive group (SHR-H). The results revealed that renal and blood lactic acid, as well as the key fibrotic protein levels of transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4), TGFβ-1, phospho-Smad2/3 (p-Smad2/3), and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), were significantly decreased in the SHR-M group when compared with the SHR and SHR-H groups.
