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

OBJECTIVE AND

methodsThe aim of this study was to retrospectively analyze the renal prognosis of elderly coronary artery disease (CAD) patients complicated with renal insufficiency.

resultsA total of 307 patients were included. The mean follow-up period was 25±11months. The average age was 79±7 years. In the worsening renal function group, there were higher occurrence rate of heart failure and severe coronary artery stenosis, lower rate of percutaneous coronary intervention, lower medication rate of renin-angiotensin blocker, lower plasma albumin, magnesium and hemoglobulin level. There was no significant difference in the rate of worsening renal function or gastrointestinal bleeding between patients who took anti-platelet agents/statins and those without. Patients with reduced left ventricular ejective fraction had higher rate of worsening renal function, yet lower medication rate of renin-angiotensin blockers, lower plasma albumin and hemoglobulin level. Anemia, malnutrition and worsening cardiac function were risk factors of renal function deterioration and mortality.

conclusionsIn the elderly coronary artery disease patients who had renal insufficiency, antiplatelet agents and statin have non-adverse effects on renal function; lower medication rate of renin-angiotensin blocker were found in patients with either worsening renal function or heart failure. Anemia, malnutrition and worsening cardiac function are risk factors of renal function deterioration and mortality.
