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

backgroundAcute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication of cardiac surgery. Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (hUCMSC)-derived exosomes affect tissue damage and repair, and miR-21-5p reduces apoptosis and inflammation. However, miR-21-5p's role in cardiac surgery remains unclear.

methodsKidney injury molecule (KIM-1), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipid carrier protein (NGAL), serum creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. hUCMSCs and exosomes were identified

resultsKIM-1, NGAL, serum creatinine, and BUN levels were increased and miR-21-5p expression was inhibited in AKI after cardiac surgery. In AKI after cardiac surgery, hUCMSCs-Exos inhibited apoptosis and pyroptosis and promoted viability

conclusionshUCMSCs-Exos protect against AKI by enhancing miR-21-5p/TEAD1 binding
