Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells as Central Hubs of Kidney Disease.
Review in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs) are increasingly recognized as key players in kidney diseases. They integrate metabolic, inflammatory, and fibrotic signals. This article reviews new data suggesting that RTECs could function as central integrators within diagnostic networks, linking cellular stress responses to detectable blood and urine biomarkers. We discuss the latest advances in multi-omics, extracellular vesicles, and single-cell technologies that enable precise identification of RTEC states. Finally, we discuss the potential of RTEC-centric diagnostics and highlight current limitations in early disease recognition, stratification, and the development of personalized therapeutic interventions.
