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

Background and aim: Doxorubicin (DOX) is a chemotherapeutic drug with potential nephrotoxic effects on patients who are on cancer chemotherapy. An interest has been observed in using natural products to ameliorate the potential side effects of DOX. The present study is to investigate the cellular mechanisms underlying the protective effects of Experimental procedure: Hexane (25 mg/kg/day), ethyl acetate (80 mg/kg/day), n-butanol (70 mg/kg/day), and water (120 mg/kg/day) extracts of BP, were administered to DOX-induced (5 mg/kg (2500 μL/kg), ip) Wistar rats for four consecutive weeks. At the end of the study, investigations were carried out for the assessment of biomarkers of nephrotoxicity, oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis. Results: Treatments with BP extracts significantly reversed DOX-induced elevations in serum and urine biochemical markers of nephrotoxicity (serum creatinine; 21-33%, blood urea nitrogen; 26-58%, β Conclusions: The selected BP extracts significantly ameliorated DOX-induced AKI. The findings would open new vistas for the development of a drug using the BP extracts to minimize DOX-induced AKI in cancer patients.
