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

objectivesPyroptosis is considered to play an important role in the occurrence, development and prognosis of septic acute kidney injury (SAKI). We aimed to explore the specific molecular mechanism of S-nitrosoglutathione (SNG) regulating pyroptosis of kidney tubular epithelial cells (KTECs).

methodsBy constructing a mice model of sepsis, we pretreated them with SNG and used biochemical methods to detect the levels of serum inflammatory factors and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS), assessed the severity of kidney injury and KTECs mitochondrial damage, and detected the expression of KTECs pyroptosis-related proteins and sirtuin 3 (SIRT3)/superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) pathway proteins.

resultsThe kidney injury caused by sepsis was significantly aggravated, and the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18, TNF-α, malondialdehyde (MDA) and mtROS were all increased, accompanied by the decrease of SIRT3 and SOD2 proteins, while NOD-like receptor with pyrin domain 3 (NLRP3), gasdermin D (GSDMD), Caspase-1 proteins expression and the number of KTECs apoptotic cells were all increased. However, after SNG pretreatment, the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-18, TNF-α, MDA and mtROS were all significantly decreased, the expression of SIRT3 and SOD2 proteins were increased, NLRP3, GSDMD, Caspase-1 proteins expression and the number of KTECs apoptotic cells were decreased.

conclusionsSNG protects SAKI by regulating the SIRT3/SOD2/mtROS signaling pathway to inhibit the pyroptosis of KTECs.
