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

Chronic kidney disease and white matter hyperintensity (WMH) are associated with cognitive decline. The aim of this study was to assess the correlations between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) or WMH and cognitive function in patients who have undergone carotid endarterectomy (CEA). Cognitive functions were investigated using the Neurobehavioral Cognitive Status Examination (Cognistat) in 83 patients who had undergone CEA. The eGFR at 5 years prior to examination was significantly associated with severe cognitive impairment (odds ratio, 0.89 per 1-mL/min/1.73 m
