Role and therapeutic potential of elabela in renal disease: from molecular mechanisms to clinical applications.
Review in Endocrine connections, 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
Elabela (ELA) is a relatively newly identified bioactive micropeptide that functions as the second endogenous ligand for the apelin receptor (APJ). It plays a critical role in diverse physiological processes, including cardiovascular development, blood pressure regulation, and fluid homeostasis. Growing evidence underscores its significance in the pathophysiology of various organ systems, particularly the kidneys. This review aims to comprehensively explore the role of ELA in renal physiology and pathology. We focus on its molecular mechanisms, such as modulating renal hemodynamics, inhibiting fibrosis and inflammation, promoting cellular survival, and its therapeutic potential in acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, and hypertensive and diabetic nephropathy. Building upon our research group's previous work, this article places special emphasis on the role of ELA in renal metabolism and its promising application in the treatment of diabetic kidney disease. By synthesizing recent advancements, we seek to elucidate the connection between ELA and kidney health, assessing its potential as a novel therapeutic target for renal diseases.
