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

Background: Chronic kidney disease became a public health problem increasing healthcare burden. Our aim was to detect the relationship between cardiovascular risk, endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and kidney function in chronic kidney disease patients and to detect the nontraditional factors affecting the decline in kidney functions. Methods: A cross-sectional study including 30 male and female patients with chronic kidney disease stages 3-5. Creatinine clearance and Framingham risk score points were calculated. Carotid intimal medial thickness was measured as well as absolute flow mediated dilatation in brachial artery. Highly sensitive C-reactive protein, parathyroid hormone, kidney function tests, and lipid profile were measured. Results: Framingham risk score points and carotid intimal medial thickness increased significantly with decreasing creatinine clearance ( Conclusion: There is correlation between chronic kidney disease and impaired vascular function, subclinical atherosclerosis, and heightened inflammatory response. Chronic kidney disease patients are at increased risk of cardiovascular events with higher [10-]year cardiovascular risk.
