Association of Urine Albumin/Creatinine Ratio below 30 mg/g and Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes.
Article in BioMed research international, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Several studies show that even a level of urine albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) within the normal range (below 30 mg/g) increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases. We speculate that mildly increased UACR is related to left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In this retrospective study, 317 patients with diabetes with normal UACR, of whom 62 had LVH, were included. The associations between UACR and laboratory indicators, as well as LVH, were examined using multivariate linear regression and logistic regression, respectively. The diagnostic efficiency and the optimal cutoff point of UACR for LVH were evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and Youden index. Our results showed that patients with LVH had significantly higher UACR than those without LVH (
