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

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the nonnegligible causes of mortality worldwide. It is important to understand the underlying molecular mechanism of AKI to effective therapeutic targets. miR-155 has been found to play a pivotal role in the development of AKI, while a comprehensive review on this topic is currently still lacking. Based on this review, we found that miR-155and is strongly correlated with the pathophysiological development of AKI by modulating cell apoptosis, inflammation, and proliferation. Mechanistically, miR-155 exerts a promoting function in multiple types of AKI by regulating multiple proteins or signaling pathways, such as SOCS-1, ERRFI1, SOCS-1, TRF1, CDK12, and TCF4/Wnt/β-catenin pathway. The inhibition of miR-155 has a renoprotective effect in drug- or substance-induced AKI. Therefore, drugs or biological compounds targeted by miR-155 and its pathways may recover the process of AKI by altering apoptosis, inflammation, and pyroptosis. A miRNA nanocarrier system that has already been developed could offer a novel approach to treat AKI, providing a direction for future research. Further large-scale studies are necessary to elucidate the clinical significance of miR-155 as a potential therapeutic target for multiple types of AKI.
