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

Disturbance in mitochondrial homeostasis within proximal tubules is a critical characteristic associated with diabetic kidney disease (DKD). CaMKKβ/AMPK signaling plays an important role in regulating mitochondrial homeostasis. Despite the downregulation of CaMKKβ in DKD pathology, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. The expression of NEDD4L, which is primarily localized to renal proximal tubules, is significantly upregulated in the renal tubules of mice with DKD. Coimmunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assays revealed a physical interaction between NEDD4L and CaMKKβ. Moreover, deletion of NEDD4L under high glucose conditions prevented rapid CaMKKβ protein degradation. In vitro studies revealed that the aberrant expression of NEDD4L negatively influences the protein stability of CaMKKβ. This study also explored the role of NEDD4L in DKD by using AAV-shNedd4L in db/db mice. These findings confirmed that NEDD4L inhibition leads to a decrease in urine protein excretion, tubulointerstitial fibrosis, and oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Further in vitro studies demonstrated that si-Nedd4L suppressed mitochondrial fission and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, effects antagonized by si-CaMKKβ. In summary, the findings provided herein provide strong evidence that dysregulated NEDD4L disturbs mitochondrial homeostasis by negatively modulating CaMKKβ in the context of DKD. This evidence underscores the potential of therapeutic interventions targeting NEDD4L and CaMKKβ to safeguard renal tubular function in the management of DKD.
