Soluble ST2 and Galectin-3 and Progression of CKD.
Article in Kidney international reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 41 papers, 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
introductionCardiac biomarkers soluble ST2 (sST2) and galectin-3 may reflect cardiac inflammation and fibrosis. It is plausible that these mechanisms may also contribute to the progression of kidney disease. We examined associations of sST2 and galectin-3 with kidney function decline in participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
methodsThis was a pooled analysis of 2 longitudinal cohorts of participants with CKD: the Clinical Phenotyping and Resource Biobank (C-PROBE) study and the Seattle Kidney Study (SKS). We measured circulating concentrations of sST2 and galectin-3 at baseline. Our primary outcome was progression to estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <15 ml/min per 1.73 m
resultsAmong the 841 participants in the pooled cohort, baseline eGFR was 51 ± 27 ml/min per 1.73 m
conclusionHigher concentrations of the cardiac biomarker galectin-3 may be associated with progression of CKD, highlighting potential novel mechanisms that may contribute to the progression of kidney disease.
