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

aimsThis study aimed to assess whether neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) could be reliable biomarkers for early diagnosis of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN).

methods202 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were included in the research. All subjects were divided into CIN group and non-CIN group. Serum NGAL and FGF23 were evaluated before and 0, 1, and 2 days after PCI. Serum levels of these two markers were compared intra-group and among groups. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and logistic regression models were conducted to assess the diagnostic performance of NGAL and FGF23 in detecting CIN.

resultsWhen compared with baseline values, serum levels of both NGAL and FGF23 in all subjects increased after PCI, and the values peaked 1 day after PCI, but the changing was greater in CIN group. There were obvious differences between two groups in serum NGAL after 1, 2 days, and similar differences present in serum FGF23 after 1 day. ROC analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of relative values (percent change from the baseline) in NGAL after 1 day was 0.899 (95% CI: 0.834-0.964, p = .000), the optimum cutoff was 49% (sensitivity = 80%, specificity = 92.4%). And the AUC in FGF23 was 0.814 (95% CI: 0.733-0.894, p = .000), the optimum cutoff was 20% (sensitivity = 73.3%, specificity = 87.6%). Both serum NGAL and serum FGF23 could improve the clinical models in identifying CIN.

conclusionsNGAL and FGF23 may have certain value in early diagnosis of CIN.
