Review in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 50 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects both brain structure and function. Patients with CKD have a higher risk of both ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes. Age, prior disease history, hypertension, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, smoking, diet, obesity, and sedimentary lifestyle are most common risk factors. Renal-specific pathophysiologic derangements, such as oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, vascular calcification, anemia, gut dysbiosis, and uremic toxins are important mediators. Dialysis initiation constitutes the highest stroke risk period. CKD significantly worsens stroke outcomes. It is essential to understand the risks and benefits of established stroke therapeutics in patients with CKD, especially in those on dialysis. Subclinical cerebrovascular disease, such as of silent brain infarction, white matter lesions, cerebral microbleeds, and cerebral atrophy are more prevalent with declining renal function. This may lead to functional brain damage manifesting as cognitive impairment. Cognitive dysfunction has been linked to poor compliance with medications, and is associated with greater morbidity and mortality. Thus, understanding the interaction between renal impairment and brain is important in to minimize the risk of neurologic injury in patients with CKD. This article reviews the link between chronic kidney disease and brain abnormalities associated with CKD in detail.
