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: Increased dietary potassium intake has well-proven beneficial effects on cardiovascular health and mortality. However, the association between dietary potassium intake and chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression remains unclear with prior studies reporting conflicting results. Objective: To study the association between 24-hour urinary potassium excretion (a surrogate for dietary potassium intake) and progression to kidney failure. Design: Retrospective cohort study. Setting: Ottawa, Canada. Patients: Patients with advanced CKD referred to the Ottawa Hospital Multi-Care Kidney Clinic from 2010 to 2020. Measurements: Twenty-four-hour urinary potassium excretion measured upon referral to the Ottawa Hospital Multi-Care Kidney Clinic as part of routine clinic protocol. Methods: Multivariable Cox and Fine and Gray models provided hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to estimate the association between quartiles of 24-hour urinary potassium excretion and progression to kidney failure. A restricted cubic spline analysis examined the possible nonlinear relationship between 24-hour urinary potassium excretion (as a continuous variable) and progression to kidney failure. Results: Overall, 432/695 (62%) patients progressed to kidney failure. Across all models, there was no significant difference in kidney failure risk by quartile of 24-hour urinary potassium excretion (all Limitations: Observational design, single center. Conclusions: We found no association between 24-hour urinary potassium excretion and progression to kidney failure in patients with advanced CKD. Therefore, we identified no clear evidence that increasing or decreasing dietary potassium intake significantly associates with CKD progression in this population. Trial Registration: Not registered.
