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

To investigate the estimated glomerular filtration rates of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with or without liver cirrhosis, and to explore the related risk factors.A total of 559 CHB patients were enrolled. Liver cirrhosis was diagnosed with ultrasound. The Child-Pugh scoring system was used to stage patients with liver cirrhosis. The Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula was used to calculate the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).A total of 296 patients were involved. The results showed that the incidence of renal impairment in patients with liver cirrhosis was 8.45% (25/296). The incidence of renal impairment in Child-Pugh C patients was significantly higher than that in Child-Pugh B and Child-Pugh Grade A patients (i.e., 17.2% [17/99] vs 6.67% [7/105] vs 1.09% [1/92], respectively, P < .001); age, hyperuricemia, and Child-Pugh score are all risk factors for impaired renal function.With the deterioration of liver function in patients with cirrhosis, the incidence of impaired renal function has increased significantly, and renal function should be closely monitored to guide patients in clinical medication.
