Awareness of chronic kidney disease in Austria: a frequently under-recognized clinical picture.
Article in Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
backgroundThe prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is rising at an alarming rate, thus presenting a substantial burden for the patient as an individual and-because of the enormous treatment costs-for society as a whole. Early diagnosis and therapy could slow disease progression and reduce the prevalence of cost-intensive end stage renal disease. The aim of this study was to determine the accuracy of diagnosis of CKD in acute patients presenting at an internal ward.
methodsRoutine laboratory parameters of kidney function of 238 inpatients were retrospectively evaluated to determine the prevalence of CKD, defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min/1.73 m(2). Those results were compared with the actual documentation of the ICD-10 diagnosis CKD in the discharge reports of the respective patients.
resultsOf 238 patients, 228 patients were included in the analysis. The overall median (range) eGFR was 60.7 (10.4-171.9) mL/min/1.73 m(2), with no gender-specific difference. Of patients, 49.6 % (n = 113) were retrospectively diagnosed with CKD stage 3 or higher. However, the review of the discharge reports found correct diagnosis of CKD in only 38.1 % (n = 43) of these patients.
conclusionsThe present analysis shows that CKD remains frequently unrecognized, even in a hospital setting. This could have dramatic implications on the care, treatment and prevention of CKD and associated complications.
