A Systematic Study of the Prevalence and Risk Factors of CKD in Uddanam, India.
Article in Kidney international reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 39 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
introductionDespite reports of a high prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) from the coastal Uddanam region of Andhra Pradesh, India, there are no accurate data on the distribution of kidney function abnormalities and CKD risk factors in this region.
methodsA total of 2419 participants were recruited through multistage cluster random sampling from 67 villages. Serum creatinine and urine protein creatinine ratio were measured using validated methodologies. All abnormal estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urine protein creatinine ratio values were reconfirmed after 3 months. A range of sociodemographic factors were evaluated for their association with CKD using Poisson regression.
resultsOf 2402 eligible subjects (mean ± SD age, 45.67 ± 13.29 years; 51% female), 506 (21.07%) had CKD (mean ± SD age, 51.79 ± 13.12 years; 41.3% female). A total of 246 (10.24%) had eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m
conclusionWe confirmed the high prevalence of CKD in the adult population of Uddanam. The cause was not apparent in a majority. Subjects with a low eGFR with or without elevated proteinuria were phenotypically distinct from those with proteinuria and preserved eGFR. Our data suggest the need to apply a population-based approach to screening and prevention and studies to understand the causes of CKD in this region.
