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

Deteriorating kidney function is frequently observed in the elderly population, as well as vulnerability to acute kidney failure, such as ischemic/reperfusion injury (IRI), and inadequate recovery from IRI is one of the mechanisms of kidney dysfunction in the elderly. The potential mediators in the progression of kidney dysfunction in the aging kidney have not yet been clearly revealed. In this study, we investigated the role of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2), which is an essential regulator of cellular redox homeostasis, in restoring kidney function after IRI in the aging kidney. NRF2 expression decreased significantly in the kidneys of old mice, as well as histologic and functional renal recovery after IRI; 45-min renal pedicle clamping was retarded in old compared with young mice. Persistent renal injury during the recovery phase after IRI was aggravated in NRF2 knockout (KO) mice compared to wild-type mice. Oxidative stress occurred in NRF2 KO old mice during the IRI recovery phase along with decreased expression of mitochondrial OXPHOS-related proteins and a reduction in mitochondrial ATP content. In vitro, hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury was aggravated in senescent human proximal tubuloepithelial cells after NRF2 restriction using NRF2 siRNA, which also increased the level of oxidative stress and deteriorated mitochondrial dysfunction. Treating the mice with an NRF2 activator, CDDO-Me, alleviated the injury. These results suggest that NRF2 may be a therapeutic target for the aging kidney.
