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

Inflammatory response, oxidative stress, and pyroptosis play important roles in the pathogenesis of diabetic kidney disease (DKD), and the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome complex and pyroptosis are possible cellular regulators dependent on these processes. Treatment of DKD relies on sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is); however, its effects on oxidative stress and the NLRP3 complex have not yet been fully elucidated. This study aimed to evaluate the role of a SGLT2i in the regulation of the redox system, inflammatory profile, and NLRP3 inflammasome in an experimental model of DKD. Briefly, C57BL/6 mice were subjected to a DKD model induced by the combination of a high-caloric diet and streptozotocin (40 mg/kg). The animals were exposed to empagliflozin 35 mg/kg, and clinical (plasma glucose, water and caloric intake, and weight gain) and functional (glycosuria and albuminuria) parameters were subsequently evaluated. After 25 weeks, the animals were euthanized for evaluation of histological parameters, redox activity, NLRP3 complex activity, and pyroptosis. Our results showed that DKD model animals had clinical features of DKD, namely, high body mass index, glucose levels, albuminuria, and glomerular area. Empagliflozin reduced glycemia levels, glomerular area, H
