Prevalence and risk of chronic kidney disease in oral lichen planus: a large cross-sectional study from eastern China.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundOral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory mucocutaneous disease which is frequently associated with comorbidities such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. However, little is known about the association of OLP with impaired kidney function. To elucidate the possible association of chronic kidney disease (CKD) with OLP and its severity, this study investigated the prevalence of CKD as well as its risk factors in patients with OLP.
methodsA large prospective cross-sectional study of 1,021 patients with OLP was carried out using questionnaires and laboratory tests available from an oral medicine clinic at a university in eastern China. According to the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) diagnostic guideline, CKD was classified based on the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, <60 mL/min/1.73 m
resultsThe prevalence of CKD in the patients with OLP in this study was 14.3% (95% CI, 12.3-16.6%), which was higher than that in the general Chinese population (10.8%; 95% CI, 10.2-11.3%). The mean values of serum creatinine, eGFR, UACR, and urine N-acetyl-β-D-glucosidase in patients with CKD were significantly higher than those in patients without CKD (all P<0.01). Pearson's correlation analysis revealed that CKD stage and UACR were positively correlated with the severity of OLP (both P<0.001). Importantly, multivariate regression analysis revealed that age ≥58 years old, female sex, and hypertension were independent risk factors for incident CKD and abnormal UACR (>30 mg/g) in patients with OLP (all P<0.01).
conclusionsThis study has reported for the first time that CKD is a comorbidity in patients with OLP. The occurrence and staging of incident CKD are associated with OLP and its severity.
