Assessment of subclinical atherosclerosis and endothelial dysfunction in chronic kidney disease by measurement of carotid intima media thickness and flow-mediated vasodilatation in North Indian population.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) predisposes to accelerated atherosclerosis that is measured by carotid artery intima media thickness (CIMT) and brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD). The aim of this study was to assess the noninvasive risk markers of subclinical atherosclerosis and endothelial dysfunction and their correlation with disease severity. METHODS AND
resultsThis was a cross-sectional study conducted in 62 patients with CKD: 38 predialysis and 24 on hemodialysis and 50 age- and gender-matched controls. In both the patients and controls, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, %FMD, and CIMT were measured. Patients with CKD had increased CRP levels {[5.8 (1.0-6.0)] mg/L vs [1.0 (0.5-2.20)] mg/L;
conclusionCKD confers a higher inflammatory status when compared with apparently healthy general population. Abnormal FMD responses and CIMT values are more commonly found in dialysis patients. Our findings suggest that CIMT and FMD can be used as noninvasive markers for early risk assessment and stratification in various stages of CKD.
