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

backgroundExperimental studies have shown fibroblast growth factor 23

methodsFGF23 and other determinants of mineral metabolism, plasma renin activity (PRA), fractional excretion of Na (FENa) and BP, were analyzed at a single center in 60 patients aged 5-22 years with CKD Stages 1 (

resultsMedian FGF23 levels were higher in CKD Stages 2-3 versus CKD 1 (119 versus 79 RU/mL; P < 0.05), with hyperparathyroidism [parathyroid hormone (PTH) >69 pg/mL] in only few subjects with CKD Stages 2-3. Median FENa was comparable in both subgroups, but with proportionally more values above the reference mean (0.55%) in CKD Stages 2-3 and 3-fold higher (1.6%) in CKD Stage 3. PRA was higher in CKD Stages 2-3 (P < 0.05). Meanwhile in CKD Stage 1, FGF23 did not associate with FENa, and in CKD Stages 2-3 FGF23 associated positively with FENa (

conclusionsThe elevated FGF23, FENa and PRA and the positive association of FGF23 with FENa do not suggest FGF23-mediated increased tubular Na reabsorption and volume expansion as causing hypertension in young patients with incipient CKD.
