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

objectiveTo help primary care providers, both family physicians and nurse practitioners, identify, detect, and manage patients with and at risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), as well as outline criteria for appropriate referral to nephrology. SOURCES OF INFORMATION: Published guidelines on the topic of CKD and its comorbidities were reviewed. A MEDLINE search was conducted using the MeSH terms MAIN MESSAGE: The KidneyWise clinical tool kit, created by the Ontario Renal Network and available at

conclusionMost patients with CKD can be managed in primary care. Serial follow-up is essential to identify patients at high risk of progression to advanced stages of CKD, including end-stage renal disease. Primary care providers must continue to work together with local nephrologists to improve the lives of those living with CKD.
