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

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a common disorder with numerous severe clinical implications. Due to a high level of fibrosis and inflammation that contributes to renal and cardiovascular disease (CVD), existing treatments have not effectively mitigated residual risk for patients with DKD. Excess activation of mineralocorticoid receptors (MRs) plays a significant role in the progression of renal and CVD, mostly by stimulating fibrosis and inflammation. However, the application of traditional steroidal MR antagonists (MRAs) to DKD has been limited by adverse events. Finerenone (FIN), a third-generation non-steroidal selective MRA, has revealed anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory effects in pre-clinical studies. Current clinical trials, such as FIDELIO-DKD and FIGARO-DKD and their combined analysis FIDELITY, have elucidated that FIN reduces the kidney and CV composite outcomes and risk of hyperkalemia compared to traditional steroidal MRAs in patients with DKD. As a result, FIN should be regarded as one of the mainstays of treatment for patients with DKD. In this review, the safety, efficiency, and potential mechanisms of FIN treatment on the renal system in patients with DKD is reviewed.
