Transcriptomic Approach in Understanding Fabry Nephropathy: A Review of the Literature and Proof-of-Concept.
Synthesis in Genes, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesFabry nephropathy (FN) is a progressive complication of Fabry disease that significantly affects patient outcomes. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying FN are not yet fully understood. Recent advances in transcriptomics have opened new perspectives for the identification of early changes in gene expression associated with the development and progression of the disease.
methodsThis study includes a systematic review of transcriptomic findings in chronic kidney disease, with a particular focus on FN, and presents a proof-of-concept RNA sequencing analysis of peripheral blood samples from six Fabry patients with progressive nephropathy and six age- and sex-matched control subjects.
resultsThe analysis identified 41 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), all of which were upregulated in Fabry patients. Enrichment analysis revealed significant involvement in immune-related pathways, including neutrophil degranulation, interferon, and cytokine signaling. Cell type enrichment revealed that neutrophils and other immune cells are key players in this process.
conclusionsThese results suggest that immune and inflammatory mechanisms play a central role in the pathogenesis of FN. The identified DEGs are involved in pro-fibrotic signaling and immune system activation and shed light on possible mechanisms underlying fibrosis, podocyte injury, and kidney damage. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of FN and may facilitate in the identification of early biomarkers for diagnosis and disease monitoring.
