Sex-Specific Renal Proteomic Responses to Mycotoxins and Their Mitigation by Bioactive Food Ingredients.
Article in Molecular nutrition & food research, 2026. 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
This study aimed to evaluate sex-related differences in kidney toxicity induced by aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and ochratoxin A (OTA), administered either individually or in combination, and to investigate the mitigating potential of fermented whey (FW) and pumpkin (P) using a proteomic approach in a sub-chronic rat model. Diets naturally contaminated with AFB1 and OTA fungal producers, or enriched with FW and P, were administered to 120 Wistar rats for 28 days. Afterwards, kidneys were collected and subjected to protein extraction and digestion to peptides. For proteomic analysis, peptides were separated using an LC-QTOF-MS system, and differentially expressed proteins between control and treated groups were statistically filtered (p < 0.05) to distinguish sex-related differences between males and females. Proteomic analysis revealed that non-supplemented diets induced significant protein alterations, with male kidneys showing greater sensitivity to mycotoxin exposure, particularly to OTA, and exhibiting a distinct expression pattern compared with females. Notably, FW and FW + P supplementation mitigated these adverse effects by reducing the number of differentially expressed proteins, stabilizing mitochondrial function, and enhancing xenobiotic metabolism pathways. These findings underscore the importance of sex-specific factors in evaluating the protective potential of bioactive ingredients against mycotoxin-induced renal injury.
