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

backgroundAdiponectin, a peptide hormone secreted from adipocytes, exerts anti-diabetic, anti-atherogenic, and anti-inflammatory properties. We aimed to determine the relationship between serum adiponectin levels and albuminuria, and evaluate determinant factors for serum adiponectin in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).

methodsIn total, 1442 CKD patients were included and divided into three groups according to their albumin-to-creatinine ratios: patients with normoalbuminuria (N = 228), microalbuminuria (N = 444), and macroalbuminuria (N = 761). Serum adiponectin was specifically assayed with a commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit.

resultsSerum adiponectin was significantly higher in patients with macroalbuminuria than in those without macroalbuminuria (9.7 ± 6.0, 12.4 ± 9.0, and 14.9 ± 11.0 μg/mL in patients with normoalbuminuria, microalbuminuria, and macroalbuminuria, respectively). Univariate linear regression analysis showed that the serum adiponectin concentrations were correlated with age, the albumin-to-creatinine ratio, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, whereas they were negatively correlated with body mass index, the estimated glomerular filtration rate, and serum albumin and triglyceride levels. The stepwise regression multiple analysis showed that sex; the estimated glomerular filtration rate; body mass index; total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglyceride levels; and logarithm of the albumin-to-creatinine ratio were independently associated with the logarithm of serum adiponectin levels (r = 0.55, p < 0.001).

conclusionSerum adiponectin concentrations are higher in patients with increasing albuminuria, and these levels are associated with renal insufficiency and lipid profiles.
