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

Uric acid (UA) is the final product of purine metabolism in the human body. Excessive accumulation of UA leads to hyperuricemia (HUA) and the deposition of UA crystals in tissues, including the joints and kidneys. HUA has been identified as an independent risk factor for kidney disease. Although the association between HUA and kidney damage has been long established, the underlying pathological and physiological molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. This article reviews the latest advances in the mechanisms of kidney injury caused by HUA, particularly in the context of inflammation, oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, renal fibrosis, and imbalanced composition of the intestinal microbiota. Additionally, we discuss the advances in the treatment of HUA, aiming to provide valuable references for the study of HUA-induced kidney diseases and therapeutic strategies.
