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.

Abstract

Introduction: Indoxyl sulfate (IS), a protein-bound uremic toxin, is associated with kidney function and chronic kidney disease (CKD)-related complications. Currently, serum IS levels are primarily quantified using mass spectrometry-based methods, which are not feasible for routine clinical examinations. Methods: The efficiencies of three commercial ELISA kits in determination of serum IS were validated by comparing with ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC)-MS/MS-based method using Bland-Altman analysis. The associations between kidney parameters and serum IS levels determined by ELISA kit from Leadgene and UPLC-MS/MS were evaluated by Spearman correlation coefficient in a CKD validation cohort. Results: ELISA kit from Leadgene showed clinical agreement with UPLC-MS/MS in the determination of serum IS levels (p = 0.084). In patients with CKD, Spearman's correlation analysis revealed a perfect correlation between the IS levels determined using the Leadgene ELISA kit and UPLC-MS/MS (r = 0.964, p < 0.0001). IS levels determined using the Leadgene ELISA kit were associated with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (r = -0.772, p < 0.0001) and serum creatinine concentration (r = 0.824, p < 0.0001) in patients with CKD, and on dialysis (r = 0.557, p = 0.006). Conclusions: The Leadgene ELISA kit exhibits comparable efficacy to UPLC-MS/MS in quantifying serum IS levels, supporting that ELISA would be a personalized method for monitoring the dynamic changes in serum IS levels in dialysis patients to prevent the progression of CKD.
