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

backgroundThe observational, real-world evidence FLIEDER study aimed to describe patient clinical characteristics and investigate clinical outcomes in non-diabetic patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) using data collected from routine clinical practice in the United States.

methodsBetween 1 January, 2008-31 December, 2018, individuals aged ≥ 18 years, with non-diabetic, stage 3-4 CKD were indexed in the Optum

resultsIn the main study cohort (N = 504,924), median age was 75.0 years, and 60.5% were female. Most patients (94.7%) had stage 3 CKD at index. Incidence rates for hospitalization for heart failure, the composite kidney outcome, and worsening of CKD stage from baseline were 4.0, 10.3, and 4.4 events/100 patient-years, respectively. The intercurrent event analysis demonstrated that a relative decline in kidney function from baseline significantly increased the risk of cardiorenal events.

conclusionsThis real-world study highlights that patients with non-diabetic CKD are at high risk of serious adverse clinical outcomes, and that this risk is amplified in patients who experienced greater post-baseline eGFR decline.
