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

introductionWith chronic kidney disease (CKD), kidney becomes damaged overtime and fails to clean blood. Around 15% of US adults have CKD and nine in ten adults with CKD do not know they have it.

objectiveEarly prediction and accurate monitoring of CKD may improve care and decrease the frequent progression to end-stage renal disease. There is an urgent demand to discover specific biomarkers that allow for monitoring of early-stage CKD, and response to treatment.

methodTo discover such biomarkers, shotgun high throughput was applied to the detection of serum metabolites biomarker discovery for early stages of CKD from 703 participants. Ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled with high-definition mass spectrometry (UPLC-HDMS)-based metabolomics was used for the determination of 703 fasting serum samples from five stages of CKD patients and age-matched healthy controls. RESULTS AND

conclusionWe discovered a set of metabolite biomarkers using a series of classic and neural network based machine learning techniques. This set of metabolites can separate early CKD stage patents from normal subjects with high accuracy. Our study illustrates the power of machine learning methods in metabolite biomarker study.
