Full age spectrum equation versus CKD-EPI and MDRD equations to estimate glomerular filtration rate in adults with obstructive nephropathy.

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
objectiveTo compare the full age spectrum (FAS) equation with the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) and the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equations in predicting glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in patients with obstructive nephropathy.
methodsAdult patients with obstructive nephropathy who had undergone a GFR measurement using technetium-99m diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid radioisotope renography were enrolled in the study. The measured GFR was taken as the reference value. Bias, precision and accuracy were compared between the three equations. Kappa test and the Bland-Altman method were used to evaluate the classification and the agreement. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to describe the diagnostic accuracy of each equation.
resultsA total of 327 patients were enrolled. The P30 value for the FAS equation was 60.2% in the overall study cohort. The FAS equation had the highest diagnostic accuracy (ROC
conclusionsDespite the drawbacks associated with each equation, the FAS equation was probably closer to ideal to estimate GFR in patients with obstructive nephropathy.
