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

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is set to become the fifth-leading global cause of death by 2040. This illustrates the many unknowns regarding its pathogenesis and therapy. A key unknown relates to the therapeutic impact of the interaction between CKD and the gut microbiome. The normal gut microbiome is essential for body homeostasis. There is evidence for multiple interactions between the microbiota and CKD-its causes, comorbidities and therapeutic interventions-that are only starting to be unraveled. Thus uremic retention products, such as urea itself, modify the gut microbiota biology and both dietary and drug prescriptions modify the composition and function of the microbiota. Conversely, the microbiota may influence the progression and manifestations of CKD through the production of biologically active compounds (e.g. short-chain fatty acids such as butyrate and crotonate) and precursors of uremic toxins. The present review addresses these issues and their relevance for novel therapeutic approaches ranging from dietary interventions to prebiotics, probiotics, synbiotics and postbiotics, to the prevention of the absorption of microbial metabolites and to increased clearance of uremic toxins of bacterial origin through optimized dialysis techniques or blockade of tubular cell transporters.
