Cannabidiol attenuates arsenic-induced nephrotoxicity
Article in Research in pharmaceutical sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background and purpose: Cannabidiol (CBD) is a phenolic terpene compound with anticancer, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, neuroprotective, and anticonvulsant properties. Since the effects of CBD on sodium arsenite (As)-induced nephrotoxicity have not been fully determined, this study investigated the effect of CBD on As-induced nephrotoxicity by evaluating the NOX4 and NF-kB pathways in mice. Experimental approach: 48 male mice were divided into six groups (8 each) including group 1, receiving saline for 14 days; group 2, receiving CBD (10 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) from the 7 Findings/Results: Exposure to As significantly increased kidney markers, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and inflammation in mice kidney tissue, and pretreatment with CBD reversed these changes. In addition, CBD significantly decreased the expression of NF-kB and NOX4, and the levels of pro-inflammatory factors and the expression of cleaved PARP and increased the level of antioxidants. Conclusion and implications: CBD ameliorated As-induced nephrotoxicity related to inhibiting oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis, potentially through the NF-kB/Nox4 pathway.
