Phosphate Binding Therapy to Lower Serum Fibroblast-Growth-Factor-23 Concentrations in Chronic Kidney Disease: Rationale and Study Design of the Sevelamer on FGF23 Trial (SoFT).
Trial report in Nephron, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundIncreased levels of phosphate and fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) are strong predictors of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Preliminary data suggest that interventions lowering gastro-intestinal phosphate uptake lowers serum FGF23 concentrations and improves cardiovascular risk and subsequently survival. However, data are lacking about the magnitude of effects, the effect in different stages of CKD and whether there is a dose-effect relationship.
methodsTherefore, the Sevelamer on FGF23 Trial (SoFT) is designed as an open-label, single-arm, clinical pilot study aiming to demonstrate the feasibility of a phosphate-restricted diet in combination with the phosphate binder sevelamer to induce an effective, predictable and sustained decrease in FGF23 level in patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 15-90 or >90 ml/min/1.73 m2 with proteinuria >1.0 g in 24 h urine collection, despite optimally dosed RAAS blockade, without inducing hypophosphatemia using a forced uptitration treatment regimen aimed at restricting phosphate uptake.
