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

Neutrophils are key effector cells in the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury (AKI), where neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) play a critical role. Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18), a leukocyte surface integrin, is known to mediate inflammation. We hypothesized that Mac-1 regulates NETs formation and exacerbates ischemic AKI. The expression of Mac-1 and NETs was analyzed in peripheral blood and renal tissues from patients with kidney diseases. Mac-1 knockout (Mac-1⁻/⁻) mice were used to establish a bilateral renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) model and compared with wild-type (WT) controls. Primary neutrophils were isolated from bone marrow in vitro to investigate the mechanisms underlying NETs formation. CD11b and NETs were both implicated in patients with either AKI following cardiac surgery or interstitial nephritis. In a murine bilateral renal IRI model, NETs formation was detected in WT kidneys at 24 h, and DNase I treatment significantly alleviated renal injury. Compared to WT mice, Mac-1⁻/⁻ mice exhibited reduced dysfunction, inflammation, and NETs infiltration. In vitro, Mac-1⁻/⁻ neutrophils showed decreased PMA-induced NETs formation and reduced ERK phosphorylation. Furthermore, treatment with anti-Mac-1 antibody (M1/70) in the murine IRI model significantly attenuated kidney inflammation and injury. Mac-1 exacerbates kidney inflammation and dysfunction in ischemic AKI by mediating NETs formation through an ERK phosphorylation-dependent mechanism. Blockade of Mac-1 using the antibody M1/70 effectively ameliorates this injury, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target.
