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 (CKD) is a global public health problem. Identifying new biomarkers that can be used to calculate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) would greatly improve the diagnosis and understanding of CKD at the molecular level. A metabolomics study of blood samples derived from patients with widely divergent glomerular filtration rates could potentially discover small molecule metabolites associated with varying kidney function. Methods: Using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS), serum was analyzed from 53 participants with a spectrum of measured GFR (by iohexol plasma clearance) ranging from normal to severe renal insufficiency. An untargeted metabolomics assay (N ¼ 214) was conducted at the Calibra-Metabolon Joint Laboratory. Results: From a large number of metabolomics-derived metabolites, the top 30 metabolites correlated to increasing renal insufficiency according to mGFR were selected by the random forest method. Significant differences in metabolite profiles with increasing stages of CKD were observed. Combining candidate lists from six other unique statistical analyses, six novel, potential metabolites that were reproducibly strongly associated with mGFR were selected, including erythronate, gulonate, C-glycosyltryptophan, N-acetylserine, N6-carbamoylthreonyladenosine, and pseudouridine. In addition, hydroxyasparagine were strongly associated with mGFR and CKD, which were unique to this study. Conclusions: Global metabolite profiling of serum yielded potentially valuable biomarkers of different stages of CKD. Additionally, these potential biomarkers might provide insight into the underlying pathophysiologic processes that contribute to the progression of CKD as well as improve GFR estimation.
