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

Introduction: Renal dysfunction and progression to end stage renal disease is well known in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. We studied the role of microalbuminuria and urinary NGAL levels in children with HIV infection for the prediction of renal dysfunction. Design and Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out and 60 HIV infected children, aged (18 months to 15 years) were screened for microalbuminuria by nephelometry and for uNGAL by ELISA. Thirty healthy children were screened for uNGAL for normative data in Indian children. Results: The prevalence of microalbuminuria in studied population was 3.3%. The mean uNGAL and uNGAL/creatinine in study population was higher than controls (26.94 ± 93.12 ng/ml vs. 88.94 ± 345.20 mcg/g, and 15.53 ± 37.52 ng/ml vs. 30.12 ± 78.66 ng/ml; Conclusions: uNGAL and urine microalbumin are useful biomarkers of early tubular and glomerular injury in children with HIV infection.
