Synergistic association of hyperuricemia and hyperhomocysteinemia with chronic kidney disease in middle-aged adults and the elderly population.
Article in Medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
abstractChronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major global public health issue. Both hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) and hyperuricemia are independent risk factors for CKD. In this study, we evaluated the association of HHcy and hyperuricemia with CKD in the middle-aged and elderly populations in Taiwan.In this cross-sectional study, we collected the data of 5910 patients aged ≥50 years after their self-paid health examination at a single medical center. Homocysteine (Hcy) levels were divided into 4 quartiles (Q1, <8.2; Q2, 8.2-9.8; Q3, 9.9-11.7; and Q4, >11.7 μM/L). Renal function was determined using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation. Patients were considered to have CKD if their estimated glomerular filtration rate was < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2.The prevalence of CKD significantly increased with the quartiles of uric acid (UA) and Hcy. In multiple logistic regression analysis, the odds ratios (ORs) of CKD increased with the quartiles of Hcy, independent of UA. There was 22.9 in Q4 in the normal serum UA group and 18.3 in the hyperuricemia group compared with Q1 of Hcy. Both hyperuricemia (OR 2.9) and Q4 of Hcy (OR 8.1) were significant independent risk factors for CKD. Furthermore, hyperuricemia and HHcy had significant synergistic association (synergy index, 1.7) with CKD.The ORs of CKD increased with the quartiles of Hcy, independent of hyperuricemia. Hyperuricemia and HHcy had synergistic association with CKD.
