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

To evaluate the protective potential of ND-630, an acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) inhibitor, in preventing renal fibrosis using an adenine-induced chronic kidney disease (CKD) mouse model. Male C57BL/6 mice were divided into four groups: control, CKD, CKD + ND-630 low-dose (4 mg/kg/d), and CKD + ND-630 high-dose (16 mg/kg/d). CKD was induced by feeding 0.2% adenine diet for 4 weeks with concurrent ND-630 treatment. Renal function was assessed by serum creatinine (Scr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN). Histopathological analysis included PAS and Sirius red staining. Fibrosis markers (α-smooth muscle actin and vimentin), ACC1 expression, lipid deposition, oxidative stress markers (catalase, superoxide dismutase 2, and NADPH oxidase 4), inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6), and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)/Smad signaling were evaluated using immunohistochemistry, ELISA, and immunofluorescence. ND-630 significantly decreased Scr and BUN levels in CKD mice, with greater efficacy at higher doses. Administration of ND-630 limited renal tubular injury and collagen deposition. ND-630 suppressed the expression of fibrosis markers such as α-smooth muscle actin and vimentin, inhibited ACC1 expression, malonyl-CoA production, and lipid accumulation. Additionally, ND-630 protected against oxidative stress, decreased inflammatory cytokines levels, and antagonized TGF-β1/Smad signaling activation in CKD kidneys. ND-630 demonstrates nephroprotective effects in adenine-induced CKD mice by inhibiting ACC1-mediated lipid accumulation, suppressing oxidative stress and inflammation, and antagonizing TGF-β1/Smad signaling.
