Review in International urology and nephrology, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

There is increasing evidence that even mild renal dysfunction is a novel potent cardiovascular risk factor in the general elderly population. With more severe renal impairment, cardiovascular risk increases proportionately. This issue deserves attention, as chronic kidney disease (CKD) is predominantly a disease of the elderly, and the mean age of end-stage renal disease patients entering dialysis is growing constantly. In the dialysis population, when clinically significant cardiovascular disease (CVD) (particularly congestive heart failure) is present, survival is worse. Thus, every effort should be made to identify and treat cardiovascular risk factor in the early stages of CKD. However, elderly renal patients receive less proper cardiovascular therapy compared to non-renal subjects of the same age. This review deals briefly with the most significant data published in the last decade on CVD in elderly with CKD.
