Older menarche age and short reproductive period linked to chronic kidney disease risk.
Article in Medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
This study aimed to investigate the association between reproductive period and menarche age and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in South Korean postmenopausal women.This was a cross-sectional study of the data for 8510 postmenopausal women using the results of Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys over the past 6 years.Of the total 8510 postmenopausal women, 790 (10.23%) were CKD patients. The menarche age in the CKD group was 16.2 ± 1.9 years old, which was higher than that in the non-CKD group (P < .001). The reproductive period of the CKD group was 32.4 ± 5.7 years, which was shorter than 33.3 ± 5.4 years in the non-CKD group (P < .001). The prevalence of CKD was 4.7% at a menarche age of 11 years or younger, which increased with increasing of menarche age, reaching 9.9% at menarche age of 16 years or older. According to the length of the reproductive period, the prevalence of CKD was 13.9% for the group less than 20 years of period and decreased significantly with increasing length of reproductive period. The prevalence of proteinuria was 7.2% in women with reproductive period of less than 20 years and significantly less in women with a reproductive period longer than 45 years (2.3%). The prevalence of CKD and proteinuria increased with increasing of menarche age, and the prevalence of CKD and proteinuria decreased with increasing of reproductive period.The results suggest that CKD was associated with older menarche age and a short reproductive period. Management of life patterns and medical problems in women with old age at menarche and a short reproductive period should be considered.
