Diabetic nephropathy in mice is aggravated by the absence of podocyte IRE1 and is correlated with reduced kidney ADH1 expression.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundInositol-requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1) plays a critical role in attenuating endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress associated with renal injury which may also be a factor in diabetic nephropathy (DN). Alcohol dehydrogenase type I (ADH1) activity is prominent in the kidney, ADH1 activity is also reported to exert protective effects against ER stress that are not caused by alcohol consumption. However, the role of IRE1 in DN and the correlation between IRE1 and ADH1 activity remain unclear.
methodsIRE1α floxed mice (
resultsWe found that IRE activity was increased in the glomeruli of DN mouse models. In contrast, ADH1 expression was decreased in these models and mice with podocyte-specific disruption of IRE1 (PKO mice). PKO mice that were made diabetic using strepto-zotocin exhibited accelerated proteinuria, enhanced glomerular fibrosis, and podocyte cell death. In addition, in cultured podocytes, the knockdown of IRE1 downregulated the ADH1 mRNA expression and induced ER stress, consistent with the result of PKO mice, while its detrimental effects were reversed by ADH1 overexpression.
conclusionsActivation of IRE1 in podocytes serves to limit the progress of DN. The dependence of kidney ADH1 expression on podocyte IRE1 further suggests that ADH1 activity may play an important role downstream of IRE1 in protecting against DN.
