Altered kidney distribution and loss of ACE2 into the urine in acute kidney injury.
Article in American journal of physiology. Renal physiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
There are diverse pathophysiological mechanisms involved in acute kidney injury (AKI). Among them, overactivity of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been described. Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a tissue RAS enzyme expressed in the apical border of proximal tubules. Given the important role of ACE2 in the metabolism of angiotensin II, this study aimed to characterize kidney and urinary ACE2 in a mouse model of AKI. Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) was induced in C57BL/6 mice by clamping of the left renal artery followed by removal of the right kidney. In kidneys harvested 48 h after IRI, immunostaining revealed a striking maldistribution of ACE2 including spillage into the tubular lumen and the presence of ACE2-positive luminal casts in the medulla. In cortical membranes, ACE2 protein and enzymatic activity were both markedly reduced (37 ± 4 vs. 100 ± 6 ACE2/β-actin,
