High Serum Uric Acid and High-Sensitivity C Reactive Protein Concentrations Predict Three-Year Cardiovascular Mortality in Patients Treated With Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis.

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
aimsThis study aims to access the predicting value of serum uric acid (UA) and high-sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP) concentration on three-year cardiovascular-related mortality in patients performing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD).
methodsA total of267 CAPD patients [150 male (56.2%); mean age 48.93 ± 13.58 years] were included in our study. All patients had measured serum UA and hs-CRP concentration. A high-sensitivity particle-enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay determined serum hs-CRP; serum UA levels were determined using an enzymatic colorimetric assay. All patients were followed for three years to detect cardiovascular-related mortality by cardiologists and stroke specialists.
resultsMean serum UA level was 415.16 ± 84.28 µmol/L, 58.4% of patients had increased serum UA level. Median serum hs-CRP level was 2 (1-4) mg/L, 12.4% of patients had increased serum hs-CRP level. During 36 months of follow-up, 41 patients (15.4%) had cardiovascular-related mortality. The results of Cox proportional hazards regression showed that hypertension, diabetes, high serum UA and hs-CRP were risk factors that related to cardiovascular-related mortality (p<0.05). The
conclusionHigh serum UA and hs-CRP levels were predictive factors of cardiovascular-related mortality in CAPD patients.
