Higher albumin:creatinine ratio and lower estimated glomerular filtration rate are potential risk factors for decline of physical performance in the elderly: the Cardiovascular Health Study.
Article in Clinical kidney journal, 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
introductionMildly reduced renal function and elevated urine protein levels are each prospectively associated with hip fracture risk in older adults. Here we determine whether these markers are associated with reduced appendicular muscle performance.
methodsWe prospectively examined the associations of urine albumin:creatinine ratio (ACR) and reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) with longitudinal changes in grip strength and gait speed >2 years in 2317 older community-dwelling men and women (median age 77 years). The median ACR was 9.8 [interquartile range (IQR) 5.40-21.50] mg/g creatinine and the median eGFR was 71.6 (IQR 59.1-83.56) mL/min/1.73 m
resultsIn demographic- and covariate-adjusted models, a 2-fold higher baseline urine ACR was associated with longitudinal changes of -0.17 kg [95% confidence interval (CI) -0.29 to -0.06) in grip strength and -1.10 cm/s (95% CI -1.67 to -0.53) gait speed per year. Corresponding estimates for a 10 mL/min/1.73 m
conclusionsIn older adults, higher ACR and lower eGFR are potential risk factors for a decline of physical performance >2 years.
