SIRT4 Controls Macrophage Function and Wound Healing through Control of Protein Itaconylation in Mice.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Proper regulation of inflammatory responses is essential for organismal health. Dysregulation can lead to accelerated development of the diseases of aging and the aging process itself. Here, we identify a novel enzymatic activity of the mitochondrial sirtuin SIRT4 as a lysine deitaconylase that regulates macrophage inflammatory responses. Itaconate is a metabolite abundantly produced in activated macrophages. We find it forms a protein modification called lysine itaconylation. Using biochemical and proteomics approaches, we demonstrate that SIRT4 efficiently removes this modification from target proteins both
