1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Acute kidney injury (AKI) causes epithelial damage followed by subsequent repair. While successful repair restores kidney function, this process is often incomplete and can lead to chronic kidney disease (CKD) in a process called failed repair. To better understand the epigenetic reprogramming driving this AKI-to-CKD transition, we generated a single-nucleus multiomic atlas for the full mouse AKI time course, consisting of ~280,000 single-nucleus transcriptomes and epigenomes. We reveal cell-specific dynamic alterations in gene regulatory landscapes reflecting, especially, activation of proinflammatory pathways. We further generated single-nucleus multiomic data from four human AKI samples including validation by genome-wide identification of nuclear factor κB binding sites. A regularized regression analysis identifies key regulators involved in both successful and failed repair cell fate, identifying the transcription factor CREB5 as a regulator of both successful and failed tubular repair that also drives proximal tubular cell proliferation after injury. Our interspecies multiomic approach provides a foundation to comprehensively understand cell states in AKI.
