Beneficial Effects of Selenium on Kidney Injury via Nf-Kb and Aquaporin-1 Levels.
Article in Biological trace element research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Systemic inflammation is a serious condition that can affect various tissues and organs, such as the kidneys, and can be life-threatening. Selenium (Se) is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory trace element. In this study, we aimed to examine the effects of Se, which has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced kidney damage to maintain aquaporin-1 (AQP-1) levels. Four experimental rat groups (n = 8) consisting of the control, LPS alone, LPS + Se, and Se alone were so applied for 7 consecutive days. Upon sacrifice, histopathological results, diagnostic markers of kidney functions, oxidative stress, and inflammation were analyzed. Our results showed that LPS induced mononuclear cell infiltration, cellular residue, and protein deposition in the kidney proximal tubules, and also decreased total antioxidant status levels and increased total antioxidant status and oxidative stress index values. LPS increased the level of creatinine, increased the level of Nuclear Factor kappa B, which has an important role in the inflammation process, and decreased the levels of AQP-1 due to the damage it caused. Se has shown its effect by reversing all these situations. This data suggests that Se can be used as an additive to mitigate LPS-induced toxicity in the kidney.
