Association between NDUFS1 from urinary extracellular vesicles and decreased differential renal function in children with ureteropelvic junction obstruction.
Article in BMC nephrology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundUreteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is the most common cause of pediatric congenital hydronephrosis, and continuous kidney function monitoring plays a role in guiding the treatment of UPJO. In this study, we aimed to explore the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in the urinary extracellular vesicles(uEVs) of children with UPJO and determine potential biomarkers of uEVs proteins that reflect kidney function changes.
methodsPreoperative urine samples from 6 unilateral UPJO patients were collected and divided into two groups: differential renal function (DRF) ≥ 40% and DRF < 40%.We subsequently used data-independent acquisition (DIA) to identify and quantify uEVs proteins in urine, screened for DEPs between the two groups, and analyzed biofunctional enrichment information. The proteomic data were evaluated by Western blotting and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in a new UPJO testing cohort.
resultsAfter one-way ANOVA, a P adj value < 0.05 (P-value corrected by Benjamin-Hochberg) was taken, and the absolute value of the difference multiple was more than 1.5 as the screening basis for obtaining 334 DEPs. After analyzing the enrichment of the DEPs according to Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment combined with the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network results, we selected nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-ubiquinone oxidoreductase core subunit S1 (NDUFS1) for further detection. The expression of NDUFS1 in uEVs was significantly lower in patients with DRF < 40% (1.182 ± 0.437 vs. 1.818 ± 0.489, P < 0.05), and the expression level of NDUFS1 was correlated with the DRF in the affected kidney (r = 0.78, P < 0.05). However, the NDUFS1 concentration in intravesical urine was not necessarily related to the change in DRF (r = 0.28, P = 0.24).
conclusionsReduced expression of NDUFS1 in uEVs might indicate the decline of DRF in children with UPJO.
