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

Objective: To analyze the correlation between serum osteoprotegerin (OPG) level and chronic kidney disease (CKD) at different CKD stages in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: All subjects were hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes. Medical history collection, physical examinations, and blood and urine samples testing were performed. Stages of CKD (G1-5) were defined by eGFR, groups of persistent albuminuria (normal, microalbuminuria and massive albuminuria) were divided by UACR, and categories of CKD progression risks (low, moderate and high or very high risk) were recommended by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO). Serum OPG level was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in the central laboratory. Results: Four hundred and eighty-four patients were included in the study. The average level of OPG of all subjects was 941.30 (547.53-1332.62) pg/mL. The levels of OPG decreased gradually with the aggravation of albuminuria (P = 0.007, P Conclusion: In patients with type 2 diabetes, elevated serum osteoprotegerin is associated with albuminuria and the risk of CKD progression, and may delay the progression of CKD.
