Unexpected cause of vemurafenib-induced nephrotoxicity: ferrochelatase.
Article in Kidney international, 2021. 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
Among v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B1 inhibitors, vemurafenib causes a higher incidence of nephrotoxicity. Bai et al. reported that vemurafenib-induced nephrotoxicity is not directly caused by viral oncogene homolog B1 inhibition but is partly caused by ferrochelatase inhibition in renal tubular epithelial cells. Because several other protein kinase inhibitors are also known to cause ferrochelatase inhibition, further studies are needed to elucidate the role of ferrochelatase in renal function and injury.
