New Therapies for the Management of Chronic Kidney Disease.
Review in Cureus, 2025. 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
A major public health concern gripping the nation is chronic kidney disease (CKD), and for individuals concomitantly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), the coexistence significantly increases the cardiovascular morbidity and mortality by two to three times higher than patients diagnosed without CKD. CKD management encompasses both non-pharmacological approaches, such as dietary sodium restriction and lifestyle modification for blood pressure control, and pharmacological approaches. Current pharmacological management focuses on four key pillars: renin-angiotensin system inhibitors (RASi), sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA), and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs), all of which have shown renoprotective and cardiovascular benefits. An incomplete block of aldosterone activity remains a challenge and is one of the factors contributing to the progression of kidney damage. Aldosterone synthase inhibitors (ASIs), such as vicadrostat, may represent a new horizon in selectively inhibiting aldosterone synthesis while preserving cortisol production. Early-phase trials have shown reductions in albuminuria and a potential for renal protection. The question is, could ASIs emerge as a fifth pillar in CKD management and help curb the progression?
