Urine hemojuvelin in cats with naturally occurring kidney disease.
Article in Journal of veterinary internal medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundSoluble-type hemojuvelin in serum and urine has been shown to be a biomarker in humans for chronic kidney disease (CKD) and acute kidney injury (AKI). No similar research has been conducted on cats.
objectiveUrine hemojuvelin (u-hemojuvelin) can be used as a clinical indicator for cats with various renal diseases. ANIMALS: Eighteen healthy cats, 10 cats with AKI, 21 cats with acute-on-chronic kidney injury (ACKI), and 45 cats with CKD were enrolled.
methodsThe expression profile of u-hemojuvelin was assessed by Western blot analysis, whereas the u-hemojuvelin concentration was measured using an in-house sandwich ELISA. Each cat's u-hemojuvelin-to-creatinine ratio (UHCR) also was determined.
resultsSignificant differences were found in both u-hemojuvelin concentration and UHCR between the control cats and the other cats (AKI, CKD, ACKI). Both u-hemojuvelin and UHCR had high areas under the receiver operator curve (AUROC) for diagnoses of AKI (u-hemojuvelin, 0.885; UHCR, 0.982), CKD (hemojuvelin, 0.869; UHCR, 0.959), and ACKI (hemojuvelin, 0.910; UHCR, 1). Late stage (International Renal Interest Society, IRIS stages 3 and 4) CKD cats had significantly higher u-hemojuvelin concentration and UHCR than did early stage cats (IRIS stages 1 and 2). Both u-hemojuvelin and UHCR were significantly correlated with high blood urea nitrogen, plasma creatinine, and plasma phosphate concentrations and with low hematocrit (Hct), red blood cell (RBC) count, and plasma albumin concentration. The UHCR values were also significantly correlated with white blood cell count in blood.
conclusionBoth u-hemojuvelin and UHCR potentially can serve as diagnostic indicators for a range of renal diseases in cats.
