Sirtuin1 mitigation of calcium oxalate nephropathy via enhancing itaconate abundance through reduction of histone trimethylation.

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
backgroundClinical therapeutic approaches to prevent and treat renal injury in patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) induced by calcium oxalate (CaOx) are limited. As a pivotal deacetylase, Sirtuin1 (Sirt1) exhibits notably anti-inflammatory effects, but its metabolic mechanism in regulating CaOx nephropathy remains unexplored.
methodsWe analysed organic acid metabolism in kidney using the nontargeted metabolome and identified key targets by RNA-seq. Evaluate renal injury and oxidative stress using techniques such as Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography (PET/CT) and transmission electron microscope. The protective mechanisms of Sirt1 against CaOx-induced kidney injury and subsequent crystal deposition were demonstrated using in vitro coculture systems and in vivo Sirt1 conditional knockout mice.
resultsWe found that Sirt1 has a significant protective effect on renal injury and oxidative stress induced by CaOx. Sirt1 expression decreases in CaOx nephropathy mice, and activation of Sirt1 reduces CaOx-induced kidney injury and crystal deposition by increasing the level of itaconate. In addition, it was found that Sirt1 enhances immunoresponsive gene 1 and inhibits Sdha by trimethylating histones, thereby regulating the oxidation levels of itaconate and succinate. Furthermore, we emphasise the valuable role of Sirt1 agonists and exogenous itaconate in alleviating crystal induced kidney injury.
conclusionsOur study revealed a previously unknown function of Sirt1 in CaOx nephropathy. By regulating itaconate level through epigenetic, Sirt1 protects against renal inflammation and oxidative damage induced by CaOx. Our preclinical data suggest that targeted Sirt1 agonism represents a promising therapeutic intervention for progressive crystallopathic nephropathy, potentially disrupting the inflammation-crystallisation vicious cycle. HIGHLIGHTS: Sirt1 is significantly reduced in CaOx-induced nephropathy models in vivo and calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) induced in vitro. Sirt1 in macrophages alleviated CaOx-induced kidney injury and crystal deposition via elevating itaconate levels. Conditional knockout of Sirt1 in vivo significantly exacerbates renal crystal deposition and function damage. We accurately evaluated CaOx-induced renal inflammation status by micro
