Emerging roles of SIRT6 and its modulators in kidney diseases.
Review in Cell death discovery, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
The global incidence and prevalence of kidney diseases continue to rise, posing a serious public health challenge. SIRT6 is an NAD⁺-dependent histone deacetylase with broad essential regulatory roles across various pathophysiological processes, including DNA repair, chromatin accessibility, telomere stability, and glycolipid metabolism. As an epigenetic regulator specifically expressed in kidney tissues, SIRT6 serves as a central mediator of kidney homeostasis. Notably, accumulating evidence has implicated aberrant SIRT6 expression in the onset and development of various kidney diseases, such as acute kidney injury, diabetic kidney disease, hypertensive nephropathy, renal fibrosis, and renal cell carcinoma. In the present review, we provide an overview of the sirtuin family, systematically characterize the enzymatic activities and critical biological functions of SIRT6, and discuss its molecular mechanisms across various kidney diseases, focusing on its cell type-specific functions. We further summarize the latest research advances in SIRT6-targeted modulators for improving kidney diseases and analyze the challenges associated with their clinical application. Overall, we highlight SIRT6 as a highly promising novel target in the treatment and prevention of kidney diseases, with strong potential for clinical translation.
