Association of adiposity with hemoglobin levels in patients with chronic kidney disease not on dialysis.
Article in Clinical and experimental nephrology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 4 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
backgroundIn the general population, adiposity influences erythropoiesis and iron metabolism. We aimed to assess the relationships between adiposity [estimated by body mass index (BMI) and abdominal circumference (AC)] and biomarkers of erythropoiesis in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) not on dialysis.
methodsA total of 2322 patients from the Chronic Kidney Disease Japan Cohort study were included. Patients were grouped according to BMI (low: < 18.5 kg/m
resultsMultivariate regression analysis of the 3 time-points showed that high BMI and large AC in male patients were significantly associated with higher hemoglobin levels. Hemoglobin levels were lower in female patients with low BMI and small AC than that in female patients with normal BMI and large AC, respectively; however, hemoglobin levels plateaued above a threshold of 25 kg/m
conclusionsBody composition appears to be associated with erythropoiesis; however, adiposity may be only associated with increased erythropoiesis in male patients. In addition, body composition does not appear to hamper iron metabolism in CKD patients not on dialysis.
