Kidney tea [
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Introduction: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease. Due to its complex pathogenesis, new therapeutic agents are urgently needed. Methods: We used db/db mice as the DN model and evaluated the efficacy of kidney tea in DN treatment by measuring fasting blood glucose (FBG), serum inflammatory cytokines, renal injury indicators and histopathological changes. Furthermore, 16S rDNA gene sequencing, untargeted serum metabolomics, electron microscope, ELISA, qRT-PCR, and Western blotting were performed to explore the mechanisms by which kidney tea exerted therapeutic effects. Results: Twelve polyphenols were identified from kidney tea, and its extract ameliorated FBG, inflammation and renal injury in DN mice. Moreover, kidney tea reshaped the gut microbiota, reduced the abundance of Conclusion: Our findings imply that kidney tea can attenuate DN development by modulating gut microbiota and ferroptosis, which presents a novel scientific rationale for the clinical application of kidney tea.
