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), a quick decline of renal function occurring over hours to days, is defined biochemically as defective filtration, abnormal retention of nitrogenous waste in the blood, and disturbances of replacement metabolism in electrolytes and water. In this study, we examined the renal protective effect of morin on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced AKI in the rats and manifested the mechanism involved. MATERIALS AND

methodsIntraperitoneal administration of LPS (10 mg/kg) was used for the induction of AKI in the rats, and the rats received the oral administration of morin (5, 10, and 15 mg/kg). The body weight, renal weight, and renal index were estimated. Renal parameters, soluble receptor for advanced glycation end products (sRAGE), advanced glycation end products (AGEs), antioxidant parameter, indoxyl sulfate, inflammatory cytokines, and inflammatory parameters were estimated. The mRNA expressions were also estimated.

resultsMorin treatment improved the body weight and reduced the renal weight and renal index. Morin treatment altered the level of renal parameters (creatinine, blood urea nitrogen [BUN], and albumin); sRAGE, AGEs, antioxidant parameters (catalase [CAT], superoxide dismutase [SOD], malonaldehyde, glutathione [GSH], oxidized GSH; indoxyl sulfate [urine, serum, and renal tissue]); inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-α [TNF-α], interleukin (IL)-1α, IL-1 β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-7, IL-10, IL-17, C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 1 (CXCL1), interferon γ, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), MCP-1α (MCP-1α), MIP-2, granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor); inflammatory parameters (cyclooxygenase-2 [COX-2], prostaglandin E2 [PGE2], inducible nitric oxide synthase, transforming growth factor-β, and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells [NF-κB]), respectively. Morin treatment altered the mRNA expression of kidney injury molecule-1, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), manganese SOD, TNF-α, IL-1 β, IL-6, CAT, MCP-1, NADPH Oxidase 4 (NOX4), and toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4).

conclusionThe result clearly showed the renal protective effect of morin against LPS induced AKI via alteration of TLR4/NF-κB, COX-2/PGE2, and MCP-1/CXCL1 signaling pathways.
