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

backgroundIndividuals with metabolic syndrome have elevated risks of micro- and macro-albuminuria as well as chronic kidney disease (CKD).

objectiveTo assess the influence of metabolic abnormalities on the presence of low-grade albuminuria (below the threshold for microalbuminuria). Design, participants, and main outcome measures: This community-based cohort study included 3,935 eligible individuals aged 40 years or older. The presence of low-grade albuminuria was detected in those without micro- or macro-albuminuria and analyzed according to the highest quartile of the baseline urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR ≥11.13 mg/g). CKD was defined by an estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73 m

resultsOverall, 577 (14.7%) participants developed low-grade albuminuria and 164 (4.2%) participants developed CKD during a mean follow-up period of 3.6 years. Compared with participants without metabolic syndrome, those with metabolic syndrome had greater risks of low-grade albuminuria [adjusted odd ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 1.30 (1.05-1.61)] and CKD [1.71 (1.20-2.44)]. Moreover, the incidence rates of low-grade albuminuria and CKD increased as the number of metabolic syndrome components increased (P for trend <0.0001).

conclusionsThe presence of metabolic syndrome is associated with increased incidence rates of low-grade albuminuria and CKD the middle-aged and elderly Chinese populations.
