Reference glomerular filtration rate levels in Japanese children: using the creatinine and cystatin C based estimated glomerular filtration rate.
Article in Clinical and experimental nephrology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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 present study was performed to determine the reference values of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in children by age using the new eGFR equations derived from serum creatinine (Cr) and cystatine C (cysC).
methodsA total of 1137 children (509 males and 628 females) between the ages of 3 months and 16 years presenting at our facilities between 2008 and 2009 without diseases affecting the renal function were included in this study as in our previous reports for reference values of serum Cr and cysC. We calculated eGFR with the Cr based equation in children aged 2-16 years, and with the cysC based equation in those aged 3-23 months, and determined the reference values of GFR in Japanese children by each age group.
resultsWe reviewed the median, 2.5 and 97.5 percentile of GFR reference value in each age group. The medians of reference GFRs are 91.7, 98.5, 106.3, and 113.1 mL/min/1.73 m(2) in children aged 3-5, 6-11, 12-17, and 18 months-16 years, respectively.
conclusionWe determined the normal reference values of GFR in children. It is important for pediatricians who examine pediatric chronic kidney disease patients to know the values of normal renal function.
