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

The association between body mass index (BMI) combined with albumin: creatinine ratio (ACR) and all-cause mortality in the general population has not been established. To address this, we examined a representative sample from the general population of China. The study included 46,854 participants with a follow-up of 4.6 years. Compared to the normal weight with ACR <10 mg/g group (the reference group), the crude hazard ratios (HRs) for all-cause mortality for the underweight with ACR >10 mg/g, normal weight with ACR >10 mg/g, overweight with ACR >10 mg/g, and obese with ACR >10 mg/g groups, were 2.22 (95% CI, 1.41 to 3.49), 1.70 (95% CI, 1.42 to 2.04), 1.52 (95% CI, 1.22 to 1.89), and 2.05 (95% CI, 1.45 to 2.89), respectively. After multivariable adjustments for age, race, comorbidities, and baseline eGFR, the HRs for the underweight with ACR >10 mg/g and normal weight with ACR >10 mg/g groups were 1.85 (95% CI, 1.17 to 2.91) and 1.36 (95% CI, 1.13 to 1.63), respectively. The results indicate that BMI combined with ACR can better predict all-cause mortality than BMI alone in the general Chinese population. Underweight and normal weight people with elevated ACR are at a higher risk of all-cause mortality than those in the same BMI category with ACR <10 mg/g.
