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

Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), a cytoplasmic enzyme that plays important roles in many biological processes, is one isoform of a family of HDAC enzymes that catalyse the removal of functional acetyl groups from proteins. HDAC6 stands out from the other members of this family because it almost exclusively deacetylates cytoplasmic proteins and exerts deacetylation-independent effects, which has led to the successful development of relatively isoform-specific inhibitors of its enzymatic action. Numerous studies have recently demonstrated that HDAC6 expression and activity are increased in kidney disease, such as autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), renal fibrosis, and acute kidney injury (AKI), among others. Moreover, HDAC6 inhibitors have been investigated for use in treating these diseases. In fact, HDAC6 inhibitors effectively limit the progression of kidney diseases, suggesting that targeting HDAC6 may provide a novel treatment approach. However, the primary challenge in developing HDAC6-targeted therapies is understanding how the renoprotective effect of NDAC6 inhibitors can be selectively harnessed. Here, we discuss the unique function of HDAC6 and recapitulate the alluring potential of its inhibitors in kidney diseases.
