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

Lactylation, a novel post-translational modification (PTM) of proteins, plays a critical role in various diseases through the regulation of gene expression and metabolic reprogramming. Recent studies have increasingly highlighted its pathological and physiological relevance in kidney diseases. Lactylation exerts pleiotropic effects across diverse renal pathologies, from promoting fibrotic progression in Chronic kidney disease (CKD) to modulating immune evasion in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), thereby positioning it at the epicenter of metabolic-epigenetic interplay in kidney disease. This review systematically delineates the dynamic regulatory mechanisms of PTMs and their pivotal roles and current research status in kidney diseases, explores the latest advancements in lactylation research concerning CKD, acute kidney injury (AKI), and ccRCC, and discusses its potential as a therapeutic target. By synthesizing current findings, the article aims to offer new perspectives and directions for future treatments of kidney diseases and the development of targeted therapies.
