Arginine Dysregulation and Myocardial Dysfunction in a Mouse Model and Children with Chronic Kidney Disease.
Article in Nutrients, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Arginine, the endogenous precursor for nitric oxide synthesis, is produced in the kidneys. Arginine bioavailability contributes to endothelial and myocardial dysfunction in CKD. Plasma from 129X1/SvJ mice with and without CKD (5/6th nephrectomy), and banked plasma from children with and without CKD were analyzed for amino acids involved in arginine metabolism, ADMA, and arginase activity. Echocardiographic measures of myocardial function were compared with plasma analytes. In a separate experiment, a non-specific arginase inhibitor was administered to mice with and without CKD. Plasma citrulline and glutamine concentrations correlated with multiple measures of myocardial dysfunction. Plasma arginase activity was significantly increased in CKD mice at 16 weeks vs. 8 weeks (
