Lanthanum Hydroxide and Chronic Kidney Disease Mineral and Bone Disorder: A Rat Model.
Article in Current vascular pharmacology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveTo investigate the pharmacological effects and molecular mechanisms of lanthanum hydroxide(LH) on ectopic mineralization of soft tissue and abnormal bone in rats with acute kidney injury(AKI).
methodsWistar rats were modeled by 5/6 nephrectomy. After the operation, the rats were divided into different groups, the biochemical indexes of serum collected at different times. LH was administered by intragastric tube at doses of 0.4, 0.2, and 0.1g/kg, respectively. Rats were sacrificed in the 16th week after LH treatment. Observation of pathological changes in tissues were made by specific staining. Western Blot, Real-Time Quantitative PCR, and immunohistochemistry techniques were used to detect the impact on pathway-related proteins.
resultsCompared with the control group (no LH administered), the serum phosphate level of the LH group was significantly reduced (p<0.01), calcification of the thoracic aorta was reduced (p<0.05, p<0.01) (Serum biochemical tests before dosing and during drug treatment cycles), renal fibrosis was improved (p<0.01), nuclear entry of nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) was reduced (p<0.01), and the expression of the smooth muscle protein 22α (SM22α) was significantly increased (p<0.01). The expression of osteogenic marker genes was decreased. In addition, compared with the controls, the receptor activator for nuclear factor-κB ligand/osteoprotegerin (RANKL/OPG) ratio of the femur in the model group was increased (p<0.05).
conclusionLH can inhibit the occurrence and development of vascular calcification and bone abnormalities in AKI rats by inhibiting the NF-κB and RANKL/OPG signaling pathways.
