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

Background: Bardoxolone methyl activates nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) Methods: We developed a noncovalent Nrf2 activator UBE-1099, which highly selectively inhibits Keap1-Nrf2 PPI, and evaluated its efficacy on the progressive phenotype in an Alport syndrome mouse model ( Results: Similar to bardoxolone methyl, UBE-1099 transiently increased proteinuria and reduced plasma creatinine in Alport mice. Importantly, UBE-1099 improved the glomerulosclerosis, renal inflammation, and fibrosis, and prolonged the life span of Alport mice. UBE-1099 ameliorated the dysfunction of Nrf2 signaling in the renal tissue of Alport mice. Moreover, transcriptome analysis in the glomerulus showed that UBE-1099 induced the expression of genes associated with the cell cycle and cytoskeleton, which may explain its unique mechanism of improvement such as glomerular morphologic change. Conclusions: UBE-1099 significantly ameliorates the progressive phenotype in Alport mice. Our results revealed the efficacy of Keap1-Nrf2 PPI inhibitor for glomerulosclerosis and present a potential therapeutic drug for CKD.
