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

contextIn patients with aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs), adrenalectomy causes a rapid decrease in blood pressure and increase in blood potassium levels; however, the effects of these intensive metabolic changes on kidney function with age have not yet been examined in Japan.

objectiveTo investigate factors related to the progression of kidney dysfunction after adrenalectomy in different age groups.

participantsFifty Japanese patients with APAs and 27,572 health checkup patients as controls were examined.

main outcome measuresWe investigated changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) after adrenalectomy and characterized patients who progressed to chronic kidney disease (CKD).

resultsThe postoperative cutoff age of CKD is 50 years and age is a unique factor for the progression of CKD after adrenalectomy. Among preoperative patients, CKD was 6% for those <50 years old and 40% for those ≥50 years old, indicating a higher prevalence of CKD with APAs than in control subjects. Median eGFR <50 mL/min/1.73 m

conclusionAge is the most important predictor of the progression of kidney dysfunction after adrenalectomy in Japanese patients with APAs, particularly those with a history of cardiovascular events and positivity for KCNJ5 mutations.
