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

The relationship between serum uric acid (SUA) and cardiovascular (CV) mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been described as either a J- or U-shaped function. However, its effect in non-diabetic CKD (and varying severities of CKD) remains unclear. We analyzed the database of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, USA, from the years 1999 to 2010. We then grouped the subjects into 4 categories according to their SUA levels: (a) < 5 mg/dl, (b) 5-7 mg/dl, (c) 7-9 mg/dl and (d) ≥ 9 mg/dl. For mortality comparison purposes (CV related, cancer related and all-cause mortality), we set the SUA group of 5-7 mg/dl as the reference. We also separated this population into moderate (stage 3) and severe (stages 4 and 5) CKD. A total of 1860 participants were included in this study. Results showed that the group with the lowest SUA levels (< 5 mg/dl), were the least male gender (19.25%), had the lowest body mass index (26.41(95% CI = 25.66-27.16) kg/m
