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

objectiveResveratrol glycoside (also known as polydatin, PLD), known for its anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic properties, has shown potential in mitigating fibrosis in various organs. This study aimed to investigate the effects of PLD on high glucose-induced peritoneal fibrosis and its underlying mechanisms, focusing on the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3)/interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β)/nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) signaling.

methodsEighteen Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups: control, peritoneal fibrosis, and resveratrol glycoside treatment. Histological and immunohistochemical analyses were performed to assess peritoneal fibrosis. Human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HMrSV5) were treated with high glucose and PLD to evaluate cell morphology, viability, and the expression of fibrosis and inflammatory markers via Western Blot and immunofluorescence.

resultsPLD significantly reduced peritoneal fibrosis in rats, as evidenced by histological analyses showing decreased tissue thickness and collagen deposition. It also downregulated the expression of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1), collagen type I (Col I), alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), NLRP3, phosphorylated p65 subunit of NF-κB (p-p65), IL-1β, interleukin-18 (IL-18), cleaved caspase-1 p20 subunit (caspase-1p20) and ROS level, while upregulating E-cadherin. In HMrSV5 cells, PLD mitigated high glucose-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition, angiogenesis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and inflammation, which was reversed by overexpression of NLRP3, suggesting the involvement of the NLRP3/IL-1β/NF-κB pathway.

conclusionPLD alleviates high glucose-induced peritoneal fibrosis, angiogenesis, ROS production and inflammation by inhibiting the NLRP3/IL-1β/NF-κB signaling pathway, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic agent for peritoneal fibrosis.
