Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase inhibition ameliorates albuminuria and glomerulosclerosis but does not improve tubulointerstitial fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy.
Article in PloS one, 2020. 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
Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) is an enzyme with a unique dual function in controlling inflammation as well as reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. We have demonstrated benefit of SSAO inhibition in acute kidney fibrosis. However the function of SSAO in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is yet to be determined. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of a SSAO inhibitor (SSAOi; PXS-4728A) as an antifibrotic agent using a diabetic model of CKD. Diabetic mice were treated with SSAOi for 24 weeks and outcomes compared with untreated diabetic mice and telmisartan treated animals as a standard of care comparator. Extracellular matrix markers, fibronectin and oxidative stress, were downregulated in diabetic mice treated with SSAOi compared with untreated diabetic mice. Expression of the pan-leukocyte marker CD45 was also supressed by SSAOi. SSAO inhibition in diabetic mice resulted in a significant reduction in glomerulosclerosis and associated albuminuria compared to untreated diabetic mice. However, the effect of SSAO inhibition was less obvious in the tubulointerstitial compartment than in the glomeruli. Therefore, SSAO may be a potential target for diabetic glomerulosclerosis.
