Urinary PART1 and PLA2R1 Could Potentially Serve as Diagnostic Markers for Diabetic Kidney Disease Patients.

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
Background: Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a chronic renal disease which could eventually develop into renal failure. Though albuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) are helpful for the diagnosis of DKD, the lack of specific biomarkers reduces the efficiency of therapeutic interventions. Methods: Based on bulk-seq of 56 urine samples collected at different time points (including 11 acquired from DKD patients and 11 from healthy controls), in corporation of scRNA-seq data of urine samples and snRNA-seq data of renal punctures from DKD patients (retrieved from NCBI GEO Omnibus), urine-kidney specific genes were identified by Multiple Biological Information methods. Results: Forty urine-kidney specific genes/differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified to be highly related to kidney injury and proteinuria for the DKD patients. Most of these genes participate in regulating glucagon and apoptosis, among which, urinary PART1 (mainly derived from distal tubular cells) and PLA2R1 (podocyte cell surface marker) could be used together for the early diagnosis of DKD. Moreover, urinary PART1 was significantly associated with multiple clinical indicators, and remained stable over time in urine. Conclusion: Urinary PART1 and PLA2R1 could be shed lights on the discovery and development of non-invasive diagnostic method for DKD, especially in early stages.
