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

objectiveTo explore the correlation of indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and chronic kidney disease (CKD).

methodsA total of 154 CKD patients and 42 non-CKD patients were recruited. Patients were grouped into ACR1~ACR3 (<30 mg/g, 30-300 mg/g, and >300 mg/g). Biomarkers in different groups were compared by ANOVA. Correlation was calculated by Pearson or Spearman analysis and binary logistic regression. The ROC curve was also performed.

resultsThe levels of albumin, serum creatinine (sCr), and IDO in non-CKD patients were significantly different from those in CKD3-CKD5 stages (

conclusionIDO may be a promising biomarker to predict CKD and assess kidney function.
