Predictors of rapid progression of estimated glomerular filtration rate among persons living with diabetes and/or hypertension in Ghana: Findings from a multicentre study.
Article in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
In Ghana, the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is 28.5% in diabetic hypertensive patients, 26.3% in hypertensives, and 16.1% in those with diabetes only. Trajectories of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) among patients with hypertension and diabetes are important for monitoring and instituting prompt interventions to prevent the development of CKD, especially in the face of limited access to renal replacement therapy. In this prospective multi-center study conducted at five hospitals in Ghana, we assessed predictors of rapid eGFR progression among adults with hypertension and/or diabetes. Serum creatinine at baseline and 18 months were taken and eGFR determined using the CKD-EPI formula. eGFR trajectory was defined as fast when the decline of GFR was ≥ 5 ml/min/1.73 m
