Non-dialyzable uremic toxins and renal tubular cell damage in CKD patients: a systems biology approach.
Article in European journal of medical research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundChronic kidney disease presents global health challenges, with hemodialysis as a common treatment. However, non-dialyzable uremic toxins demand further investigation for new therapeutic approaches. Renal tubular cells require scrutiny due to their vulnerability to uremic toxins.
methodsIn this study, a systems biology approach utilized transcriptomics data from healthy renal tubular cells exposed to healthy and post-dialysis uremic plasma.
resultsDifferential gene expression analysis identified 983 up-regulated genes, including 70 essential proteins in the protein-protein interaction network. Modularity-based clustering revealed six clusters of essential proteins associated with 11 pathological pathways activated in response to non-dialyzable uremic toxins.
conclusionsNotably, WNT1/11, AGT, FGF4/17/22, LMX1B, GATA4, and CXCL12 emerged as promising targets for further exploration in renal tubular pathology related to non-dialyzable uremic toxins. Understanding the molecular players and pathways linked to renal tubular dysfunction opens avenues for novel therapeutic interventions and improved clinical management of chronic kidney disease and its complications.
