Fibroblast growth factor 23 is pumping iron: C-terminal-fibroblast growth factor 23 cleaved peptide and its function in iron metabolism.
Review in Current opinion in nephrology and hypertension, 2024. 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
purpose of reviewIron deficiency regulates the production of the bone-derived phosphaturic hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) but also its cleavage, to generate both intact (iFGF23) and C-terminal (Cter)-FGF23 peptides. Novel studies demonstrate that independently of the phosphaturic effects of iFGF23, Cter-FGF23 peptides play an important role in the regulation of systemic iron homeostasis. This review describes the complex interplay between iron metabolism and FGF23 biology. RECENT
findingsC-terminal (Cter) FGF23 peptides antagonize inflammation-induced hypoferremia to maintain a pool of bioavailable iron in the circulation. A key mechanism proposed is the down-regulation of the iron-regulating hormone hepcidin by Cter-FGF23. SUMMARY: In this manuscript, we discuss how FGF23 is produced and cleaved in response to iron deficiency, and the principal functions of cleaved C-terminal FGF23 peptides. We also review possible implications anemia of chronic kidney disease (CKD).
