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

purposePerformance of equations in elderly with chronic kidney disease (CKD) was debated. We aimed to access the performances of estimating equations for glomerular filtration rate in Chinese elderly population with chronic kidney disease.

methodsParticipants [N = 218, median age, 82 (range 75-96)] with CKD underwent renal dynamic imaging using technetium-99m diethylene-triamine-penta-acetic acid (99mTc-DTPA). The performances of glomerular filtration rate equations including the Cockcroft-Gault equation, the MDRD (Modification of Diet in Renal Disease) equation for Chinese, 3 CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration) equations, and 2 BIS (Berlin Initiative Study) equations were compared.

resultsMedian mGFR was 47.62 (3.00-135.00) ml/min/1.73 m

conclusionCompared with other equations, the BIS-2 equation performed better in the estimation of glomerular filtration rate for Chinese elderly with CKD aged 75 or above.
