Proteomic footprint of serum urate concentration and urate transporter
Article in RMD open, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00262691 (Investigation of Genetic Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in Prospective Cohort Study, the Kitanagoya Genome), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundExisting proteomic studies have primarily focused on gout flares or symptomatic hyperuricaemia, and few have comprehensively investigated circulating proteomic profiles in serum urate (SU) concentration as a continuous quantitative trait. This cross-sectional study investigated the association between SU concentration and serum proteomic profiles.
methodsWe enrolled 176 Japanese individuals aged ≥50 years and measured serum proteins using the Olink Explore 3072. To analyse the association between SU concentration and serum proteins, we applied linear regression adjusting for age, sex, renal function and insulin resistance with a false discovery rate threshold of 5%. Tissue-specific and gene set enrichment analyses were conducted based on the regression results.
resultsA total of 2886 proteins were analysed, among whom 63 showed significant associations with SU concentration; uromodulin demonstrated the strongest association (adjusted p=2.21×10
conclusionsTo the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to report a proteomic signature of SU concentration. These findings suggest that SU-associated proteomic signatures vary according to TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT00262691.
