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 tubular epithelial cells injury is one of the most important pathological features in hyperuricemic nephropathy (HN). However, the involvement of gasdermin D (GSDMD)-mediated pyroptosis in HN remains obscure. We found GSDMD was upregulated in the kidney tissue of HN mice, which was accompanied by the loss of renal function, renal tubular fibrosis, and reduced body weight. These changes in HN mice were inhibited by GSDMD knockout. Knockdown of GSDMD inhibited the high uric acid-induced injury in cultured cells (NRK-52E). Mechanistically, co-immunoprecipitation showed that RIG-I exist in a complex with caspase-1. Overexpression of RIG-I induced increased expression of caspase-1 protein and caspase-1 activity. Caspase-1 interference significantly reduced the increase of caspase-1 activity and IL-1β production caused by RIG-I overexpression. Knockdown of RIG-I or caspase-1 decreased high uric acid-induced injury in NRK-52E. This work illustrates that targeting the RIG-I/caspase-1/GSDMD may provide potential therapeutic benefits to HN.
