N-Acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline Alleviates Renal Fibrosis Induced by Unilateral Ureteric Obstruction in BALB/C Mice.
Article in Mediators of inflammation, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
To expand the armamentarium of treatment for chronic kidney disease (CKD), we explored the utility of boosting endogenously synthesized N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline (Ac-SDKP), which is augmented by inhibition of the angiotensin converting enzyme. Male BALB/c mice underwent unilateral ureteral ligation (UUO) or sham operation and received exogenously administered Ac-SDKP delivered via a subcutaneous osmotic minipump or Captopril treatment by oral gavage. Seven days after UUO, there were significant reductions in the expression of both collagen 1 and collagen 3 in kidneys treated with Ac-SDKP or Captopril, and there was a trend towards reductions in collagen IV, α-SMA, and MCP-1 versus control. However, no significant attenuation of interstitial injury or macrophage infiltration was observed. These findings are in contrary to observations in other models and underscore the fact that a longer treatment time frame may be required to yield anti-inflammatory effects in BALB/c mice treated with Ac-SDKP compared to untreated mice. Finding an effective treatment regimen for CKD requires fine-tuning of pharmacologic protocols.
