Independent Effects of Kidney Function and Cholesterol Efflux on Cardiovascular Mortality.
Article in Biomedicines, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundImpaired renal function is associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. In the general population, HDL-cholesterol is associated with cardiovascular events, which is not true in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). This has been attributed to abnormal HDL function in CKD.
methodsIn this study, we analyzed the association of genetic markers for kidney function with cholesterol efflux capacity as one of the major HDL functions, as well as with cardiovascular mortality, in 2469 patients of the Ludwigshafen Risk and Cardiovascular Health Study who all underwent coronary angiography.
resultsA genetic score of 53 SNPs associated with GRF and the uromodulin SNP rs12917707 were inversely correlated with cholesterol efflux capacity. This was in line with the observed association between cholesterol efflux capacity and kidney function in these patients. Adjustment for eGFR and uromodulin as markers of kidney function did not affect the relationship between cholesterol efflux and cardiovascular mortality.
conclusionsOur data propose the view that cholesterol efflux and kidney function are exerting their effects on cardiovascular mortality via different and independent pathways. Decreased cholesterol efflux may therefore not mediate the effects of impaired kidney function on cardiovascular mortality.
