Renoprotection of Microcystin-RR in Unilateral Ureteral Obstruction-Induced Renal Fibrosis: Targeting the PKM2-HIF-1α Pathway.
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Renal fibrosis is a pathological characteristic of the endpoint of chronic kidney disease (CKD), which remains a major public health problem. None of the current therapies is effective in stopping kidney fibrosis progression. In light of our novel detection of a potential antifibrosis of microcystins (MCs), we investigate the renoprotection effect of MCs with UUO-induced renal fibrosis. The treatment of MCs was initiated in model animals in advance of UUO operation. After determining that the antifibrotic effect of MCs was independent of its toxicity, our study focused on the renoprotection of microcystin-RR (MC-RR), a lower toxic congener of MCs, in UUO mice and the cell models
