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

Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a significant condition that leads to acute kidney injury, exacerbating the progression of renal failure clinically and affecting the patient's prognosis. Following the identification of miR-182-5p as a significant molecule in IRI, we conducted a detailed analysis of its potential downstream genes and assessed its involvement in the SIRT1/Nrf2/ferroptosis pathway. To validate these findings in vivo, we implemented an exosome-mediated drug delivery protocol and assessed its therapeutic efficacy in C57BL/6. miR-182-5p exhibited a notable upregulation in renal IRI. Utilizing bioinformatics approaches, the study further investigated and validated its downstream SIRT1/Nrf2 pathway, establishing its role in ferroptosis. By employing LTHVVWL(LTH)-anchored exosomes, the delivery of miR-182-5p to the kidney was significantly improved, thereby illustrating its potential efficacy in mitigating renal IRI. The findings of our study demonstrated that miR-182-5p suppressed SIRT1/Nrf2 activity and facilitated ferroptosis, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target for clinical IRI treatment. The inhibition of miR-182-5p via LTH-anchored exosomes was shown to significantly mitigate renal IRI, providing a novel approach for the development of miRNA-based therapeutic drug delivery systems.
