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

Tacrolimus (Tac) is an immunosuppressive drug used to reduce the risk of allograft rejection; however, it can induce renal injury. High mobility group box 1 (HMGB-1) protein, which induces inflammation through the aberrant stimulation of the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/myeloid differentiation primary response protein (MyD88)/nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) trajectory, could represent a molecular target for alleviating Tac-induced renal damage. The present study aimed to investigate the potential protective role of the GLP-1 agonist, dulaglutide (Dula), against Tac-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. Rats were administered Tac (5 mg/kg/day) and vehicle or Dula (0.2 mg/kg once a week) for 14 days. Treatment with Dula reduced serum creatinine plus blood urea nitrogen and attenuated Tac-induced renal histopathological changes. Dula treatment also hampered renal inflammation and restored redox homeostasis, as indicated by remarkably reduced tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), malondialdehyde (MDA), and NADPH oxidase 1 levels alongside marked replenishment in reduced glutathione (GSH) content. These effects were mediated through the upregulation of miR-22 expression and the consequent inhibition of the HMGB-1/TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB trajectory. Collectively, Dula has been demonstrated to protect rats against Tac-induced nephrotoxicity by reducing inflammation, restoring redox homeostasis, and modulation of the miR-22/HMGB-1/TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB trajectory. Dula may be beneficial clinically in preventing Tac-induced renal injury.
