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

backgroundPatients with CKD have a higher prevalence of dyslipidemia and hypovitaminosis than the normal population. Recent studies in the general population have shown a potential link between 25(OH)D and dyslipidemia. However, such evidence in the early CKD population, especially in the Nepalese setting, is lacking. Thus, the present study aimed at investigating the status of 25(OH)D and dyslipidemia in the early CKD patients, and further to establish an association between 25(OH)D and lipid profile. PATIENTS AND

methodsIn this cross-sectional study, we analyzed 136 clinically stable non-dialyzed CKD patients. 25(OH)D and lipid profile were evaluated as a core variable, and their direction and magnitude of a relationship were evaluated.

resultsThe estimated prevalence of dyslipidemia was 49.3%, and 63.2% population had a deficiency of 25(OH)D level. Compared with the patient with normal 25(OH)D level, the patient with deficient 25(OH)D level had a significantly higher level of LDL-c (

conclusionOur study unveiled a high rate of dyslipidemia and hypovitaminosis in a considerable number of early CKD patients. Low serum level of 25(OH)D was significantly correlated with a higher rate of dyslipidemia. These findings indicate some evidence for 25(OH)D level as a marker of dyslipidemia prediction, and that decrease in serum level of 25(OH)D is associated with increased serum level of LDL and TC; it could increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Therefore, early recognition and timely management of hypovitaminosis and dyslipidemia is vital to prevent an inevitable cardiovascular event.
