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

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression is driven by a harmful interplay between impaired mitophagy and sustained oxidative stress. Under normal conditions, mitophagy serves as a protective mechanism by removing damaged mitochondria and limiting the production of reactive oxygen species. However, in CKD, a self‑reinforcing cycle of mitochondrial dysfunction, defective mitophagy oxidative stress, and inflammation occurs, which promotes fibrosis. The present review examines the molecular mechanisms governing mitophagy, with a specific focus on the regulatory roles of core signaling pathways, namely the PTEN‑induced kinase l/Parkin, BCL2 interacting protein 3/Nip3‑like protein X and FUN14 domain‑containing protein l pathways, and how their disruption contributes to CKD. The mechanistic crosstalk between mitophagy and oxidative stress is highlighted as a central pathogenic axis in CKD progression. In addition, emerging therapeutic strategies that aim to restore mitophagy and enhance antioxidant capacity are discussed, suggesting new strategies for targeted CKD treatment.
