Niacin inhibits vascular calcification via modulating of SIRT1/SIRT6 signaling pathway.
Article in Cell death discovery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Vascular calcification (VC) is a common pathological state that often accompanies calcium-phosphorus metabolism disorder and chronic kidney diseases (CKDs). Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) has been widely acknowledged as one of the main cell types involved in this process. Niacin, a lipid-lowering reagent, has been demonstrated to be beneficial in atherosclerotic disease, but its role in vascular calcification remains unexplored. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis of clinical datasets revealed an inverse correlation between dietary niacin intake and abdominal aortic calcification (AAC). Our data showed that niacin treatment remarkably reduced VSMC osteogenic differentiation. Moreover, niacin treatment alleviated CKD and vitamin D
