Potential protective role of GLP-1 receptor agonists for lithium-induced nephrotoxicity: a population-based observational study.
Observational study in CNS spectrums, 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
objectivesWe hypothesized that semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) and treatment currently U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved to reduce worsening of kidney disease and kidney failure may protect against lithium-induced nephrotoxicity.
methodsRenal adverse events (AEs) reported to the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) between December 2003 and December 2024 were analyzed using the validated OpenVigil 2.1 platform. Reporting odds ratios (RORs) were computed for the MedDRA terms renal impairment, renal failure, chronic kidney disease (CKD), end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and acute kidney injury (AKI) in association with lithium, semaglutide, and their co-reporting. A disproportionality signal was considered statistically significant when
resultsLithium was associated with significantly elevated reporting odds across all renal AEs, with each outcome exceeding statistical signal thresholds (
conclusionsThis observation, provides impetus to conduct adequate, thorough, mechanistic, clinical, and observational studies to determine whether semaglutide (and/or other incretin receptor agonists) could possibly mitigate the risk for, and/or modify the trajectory of, lithium-induced nephrotoxicity.
