Ameliorative action of "daitongxiao" against hyperuricemia includes the "uric acid transporter group".

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
This study aimed to investigate the potential mechanisms involved in the therapeutic effects of daitongxiao (DTX) on hyperuricemia (HUA). DTX was administered to two animal models of HUA via gavage feeding: HUA quail model (a uricotelic animal with urate oxidase deficiency), treated continuously for 35 days post-HUA induction, and HUA rats (an animal with active urate oxidase), treated continuously for 28 days post-HUA induction. HUA was induced in quail by administering a solution of sterile dry yeast powder via gavage feeding, while in rats, it was induced by intragastric gavage feeding of a solution of adenine and ethambutol hydrochloride. DTX improved overall health; increased bodyweight; reduced renal index, serum urate levels, serum xanthine oxidase activity, blood urea nitrogen, and creatinine; and enhanced urinary and fecal uric acid (UA) excretion in these two animal models. The results of hematoxylin and eosin and hexamine silver staining of kidney sections revealed that DTX significantly mitigated HUA-induced renal structural damage and inflammatory response. The results of quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence analyses revealed that DTX downregulated the renal expression levels of glucose transporter 9 (GLUT9) and upregulated the renal expression levels of organic anion transporters (OAT1 and OAT3) in both HUA models. Thus, the findings of this study suggest that DTX suppresses the progression of HUA by modulating the expression of the UA transporter group members.
