Renal Lipid Alterations From Diabetes to Early-Stage Diabetic Kidney Disease and Mitophagy: Focus on Cardiolipin.
Article in Journal of cellular and molecular medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Lipotoxicity plays a crucial role in the progression of diabetic kidney disease (DKD), yet the dynamic changes in renal lipid composition from diabetes to early-stage DKD remain unclear. Free fatty acids, lactosylceramides and cardiolipin (CL) were identified as the most significantly altered lipids by quantitatively comparing targeted lipids in the renal cortex of the classic spontaneous diabetic db/db mice using high-coverage targeted lipidomics. Further investigation into the causes and effects of decreased CL, which is a unique mitochondrial phospholipid, was conducted in mitochondria-rich renal proximal tubular cells by using western blotting, real-time PCR, immunohistochemistry and transmission electron microscopy. Reduced expression of cardiolipin synthase, a key enzyme in the CL synthesis pathway, and inhibition of CL-related mitophagy were confirmed under high glucose conditions. In addition, the protective effect of CL-targeted Szeto-Schiller 31 in preserving mitophagy was demonstrated in both in vivo and in vitro studies. These findings provide new insights into the pathogenesis of early-stage DKD from a lipid perspective and offer a theoretical basis for discovering new treatments.
