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

Despite the proven superiority of the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) over the Cockcroft-Gault (CG) formula, current guidelines recommend the latter to assess renal function in patients treated with non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs). To assess the relationship between the CG and the recommended CKD-EPI formulas, in a cohort of atrial fibrillation (AF) patients treated with NOACs, and the misclassifications introduced by the CG formula for renal function levels, we estimated renal function with three equations: CG, CKD-EPI with body surface adjustment (1.73 mL/m
