Blood lead, nutrient intake, and renal function among type 2 diabetic patients.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Lead (Pb) exposure has been reported to have nephrotoxicity. However, such an effect has not been well investigated in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients, especially when taking into account the nutrition status of the patients. Therefore, we explore the association between blood lead levels (BLLs), dietary intake of nutrients, and impaired renal function among patients with T2D. We measured BLLs and biochemical parameters of renal injury in 780 patients. Dietary nutrients intake was assessed by a food frequency questionnaire in 420 of 780 participants. We found high BLLs were significantly associated with certain parameters of renal injury, and dietary intake of specific nutrients (mainly micronutrients) was associated with reduced BLLs at high percentile distribution of concentration. BLLs were also found to have moderation effects on the association between specific dietary nutrients and specific renal function parameters.
