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

Indomethacin (INDO) is an NSAID with remarkable efficacy and widespread utilization for alleviating pain. Nevertheless, renal function impairment is an adverse reaction linked to INDO usage. Nifuroxazide (NFX), an oral nitrofuran antibiotic, is frequently employed as an intestinal anti-infective agent. Our study aimed to investigate the renoprotective effects of NFX against INDO-induced nephrotoxicity and explore the protection mechanisms. Four groups of rats were allocated to (I) the normal control, (II) the NFX-treated (50 mg/kg), (III) INDO control (20 mg/kg), and (IV) NFX + INDO. NFX attenuates renal impairment in INDO-induced renal injury, proved by decreasing serum levels of urea, creatinine, uric acid, and NGAL while the albumin was elevated. NFX mitigates renal oxidative stress by decreasing MDA levels and restoring the antioxidants' GSH and SOD levels mediated by upregulating Nrf2, HO-1, and cytoglobin pathways. NFX mitigated renal inflammation and effectively decreased MPO, IL-1β, and TNF-α levels in the rat's kidney mediated by significant downregulation of NADPH-oxidase and NF-κB expression and suppression of JAK-1 and STAT3 phosphorylation. NFX mitigates renal apoptosis by decreasing the expression of cleaved caspase-3 expression. In conclusion, NFX treatment prevents INDO nephrotoxicity by regulating Nrf2/HO-1, cytoglobin, NADPH-oxidase, NF-κB, and JAK-1/STAT3 signals.
