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

backgroundCuproptosis, a copper-induced form of programmed cell death, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury (AKI) and sepsis. Reduced glutathione (GSH), a potent antioxidant, exhibits both anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties. However, its potential role in modulating cuproptosis in AKI remains unexplored. This study investigates the effects of reduced GSH on cuproptosis in a sepsis-induced AKI mouse model.

methodsA sepsis mouse model was established

resultsReduced GSH treatment significantly improved survival rates and reduced bacterial loads in CLP mice. Additionally, reduced GSH attenuated inflammation and oxidative stress in the septic mice. It restored kidney function, decreased Cu levels in both urine and kidney tissues, and downregulated the expression of SLC31A1.

conclusionReduced GSH ameliorates sepsis-induced AKI by suppressing cuproptosis, offering potential therapeutic implications for the management of AKI in septic conditions.
