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

Serum uromodulin (sUmod) shows a strong direct correlation with eGFR in patients with impaired kidney function and an inverse association with mortality. However, there are patients in whom only one of both markers is decreased. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effect of marker discordance on mortality risk. sUmod and eGFR were available in 3,057 participants of the Ludwigshafen Risk and Cardiovascular Health study and 529 participants of the VIVIT study. Both studies are monocentric prospective studies of patients that had been referred for coronary angiography. Participants were categorized into four groups according to the median values of sUmod (LURIC: 146 ng/ml, VIVIT: 156) and eGFR (LURIC: 84 ml/min/1.73 m
