Effect of combined vitamin D receptor activator and lanthanum carbonate on serum fibroblast growth factor 23 level in predialysis patients (CVD-LAF study): design and method.
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. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundWhether vitamin D receptor activator (VDRA) use is beneficial in chronic kidney disease (CKD) is unclear, because it is possible that VDRA increases serum fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) levels. We will conduct a randomized controlled trial in predialysis patients to determine the effect of VDRA alone or in combination with lanthanum carbonate (LC) on serum FGF23 levels.
methodsThis is a single-center, open-label, randomized controlled trial. Enrollment will commence February 1, 2018, using the following inclusion criteria: (1) age ≥ 20 years, (2) CKD with an estimated glomerular filtration rate of 10-45 mL/min/1.73 m DISCUSSION: This study aims to determine whether low-dose oral VDRA increases serum FGF23 level and whether the combination of VDRA and LC inhibits this increase. The results will be useful in the management of CKD-mineral and bone disorder in predialysis patients.
