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

backgroundRenal interstitial fibrosis (RIF) is the primary pathological progression in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Given the constraints related to cost and adverse effects of current treatments, it is crucial to explore novel and efficacious therapeutic strategies. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the potential of Jiawei Danggui Buxue Decoction (JDBD) to reduce apoptosis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in RIF by regulating the Janus kinase 2 (JAK2)/Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3) pathway.

methodsAn angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced HK-2 cells model and a unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) animal model were employed to replicate the RIF model. A total of 48 male Wistar rats (weighing 200-220g) were acclimated for 1 week and then randomly divided into 6 groups (sham operation, UUO, Losartan potassium tablets, and three JDBD dosage groups: high, medium, and low, n=8). After the acclimatization period, UUO models were established in 40 rats through surgery, excluding the sham operation group. Each group received the corresponding drug via gavage for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, rats were anesthetized, and tissues were collected for subsequent analysis. Renal function tests and histological stains were used to evaluate renal damage and histopathological alterations in rats. Cell viability was examined using the CCK-8 assay. Apoptosis was identified through the utilization of flow cytometry and assessment of mitochondrial membrane potential, along with other techniques. We identified and examined the expression of EMT and extracellular matrix (ECM)-related factors, as well as the JAK2/STAT3 pathway.

results

conclusionJDBD exhibits anti-apoptotic and EMT-inhibiting functions in RIF, potentially mediated by targeting and inhibiting JAK2/STAT3 signaling transduction.
