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

objectiveWe sought to evaluate the current state of chronic kidney disease (CKD) management in our academic internal medicine clinic.

methodsA retrospective review was carried out involving all patients with laboratory evidence of CKD enrolled in our clinic. We evaluated the rate of CKD recognition as well as compliance with standard guidelines. We further subdivided our results based on physician training level, presence of diabetes, recognition of CKD, age, and race.

resultsFactors that significantly improved recognition and treatment of CKD in our study included presence of diabetes (p < 0.001), black race (p = 0.013), younger age (p = 0.004), and treatment by a resident physician (p = 0.009). Recognition of stage 3 CKD was associated with significant increases in urine protein analysis (p < 0.001) and nephrology consultation (p < 0.001).

conclusionChronic kidney disease remains under-recognized and undertreated despite well-publicized guidelines and widespread use of routine eGFR reporting.
