Inflammation-associated molecules in the glomerular-endothelium in mild IgA-nephropathy patients identified by single-cell and spatial transcriptome.
Article in Communications biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgA-N) is a primary glomerulonephritis that is characterized by mesangial cell proliferation and expansion. Although glomerular endothelial cells (GE) are implicated in the pathogenesis of IgA-N, their role remains poorly understood. We conduct single-cell and spatial transcriptomic analysis using human specimens with mild IgA-N compared with normal. We integrate single-cell and spatial transcriptome analyses in human samples of mild IgA-N compared to normal samples, revealing several novel findings: (1) identification of clusters of GE and their expressed gene profiles, (2) identification of novel inflammation-related molecules newly implicated in GE in mild IgA-N, (3) activation of inflammatory pathways characteristic of IgA-N. Therefore, we suggest the importance of GE in the mechanism of IgA-N, as GE initiates more active inflammatory response prior to mesangial cells in patients with mild IgA-N. These findings provide useful information for understanding the pathogenesis and choosing the best drug for IgA nephropathy.
