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

objectivesTo explore the mechanism of

methodsThe chemical components of SQXZD were identified using UPLC-Q Exactive/MS, and component-disease target network and enrichment analyses were conducted to screen the key pathways and targets. In the animal experiment, 49 male SD rats were randomized equally into blank control group, sham operation group, unilateral ureteral obstruction-induced RF model group, losartan treatment (daily dose 4.6 mg/kg) group, and low-, medium-, and high-dose SQXZD (9.7, 19.4, and 38.8 g/kg, respectively) treatment groups. After 14 days' treatment, renal pathologies and collagen deposition of the rats were examined with HE and Masson staining, and serum levels of BUN, Cr, SOD, MDA, GSH-px, IL-6, and TNF-α were detected. Western blotting and qRT-PCR were used to detect renal protein and mRNA expressions of α‑SMA, Col-I, NAKED2, Rap1, B-raf, Raf-1, MEK3/6, p38MAPK, MEK, ERK1/2, p-ERK1/2, FoxO3a, p-FoxO3a, and MnSOD.

resultsA total of 263 chemical components were identified in SQXZD. Network pharmacology revealed 170 intersecting targets between the components and RF enriched in the MAPK, Rap1, and FoxO pathways. The rat models of RF showed abnormal renal structural changes, increased fibrosis area, elevated serum BUN, Cr, MDA, IL-6, and TNF-α levels, reduced SOD and GSH-px levels, upregulated renal expressions of α‑SMA, Col-I, NAKED2, Rap1, B-raf, MEK, ERK1/2, p-ERK1/2, MEK3/6, and p38MAPK, and downregulated Raf-1, FoxO3a, p-FoxO3a, and MnSOD expressions. Treatment with losartan and SQXZD (especially at the medium dose) obviously lessened renal pathologies, improved renal functions, alleviated oxidative stress and inflammation, and ameliorated abnormal changes in the Rap1/MAPK/FoxO3a signaling pathway in the rat models.

conclusionsSQXZD alleviates RF and improves renal function in rats possibly by ameliorating renal oxidative stress and inflammation
