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

This study is designed to assess the effect of root extract of P. ginseng on kidney tissue injury attributed to cisplatin and its molecular mechanism involved in this process in the AKI rat model. Twenty-four male Wistar rats were randomly allocated into 4 experimental groups including: the control group, the cisplatin group, the extract 100 mg/kg group, and the extract 200 mg/kg group. The duration of the investigation was 7 days, and all rats except the control group received a single dose of 10 mg/kg cisplatin on the 4th day. Our findings exhibited a significant reduction in blood concentration of creatinine in extract groups compared to the cisplatin group. In the cisplatin group, severe renal histopathological alterations were observed compared to the control group. In extract groups, significantly less tissue damage was observed than in the cisplatin group. Ginseng extract 200 showed minimal tissue damage as compared to extract 100. The expression of p21, p27, p53, TIMP2, IGFBP7, and NF-κB decreased significantly in extract groups compared to the cisplatin group. Our findings displayed amelioration of cisplatin-induced AKI and dose-dependent decrease of the NF-κB gene expression and cell death-inducing genes by administration of P. ginseng extract.
