Correlation study of FGF23/D-serine in maintenance hemodialysis patients with combined hearing impairment.
Article in PloS one, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundRecent studies have reported an association between chronic renal failure and hearing impairment. Yet, the exact mechanism of action is still not fully understood. In this study, we investigated the expression of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and D-serine in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) complicated with hearing impairment and further investigated the correlation between FGF23/D-serine and hearing impairment.
methodsA total of 90 subjects, including 30 MHD patients complicated with hearing impairment, 30 MHD patients with normal hearing, and 30 controls, were included in this case-control study. Relevant data were obtained by questionnaire survey, audiometric test, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to determine FGF23 level, and high-performance liquid chromatography to determine D-serine level.
resultsMHD patients showed abnormally high expression of FGF23 and D-serine, where FGF23 and D-serine levels were significantly higher in the group with hearing impairment than in the group with normal hearing and normal controls (all P<0.01). Also, elevated FGF23 and D-serine were identified as risk factors for hearing impairment in ESRD, with ORs of 16.54 (95%CI, 2.75-99.55) and 15.22 (95%CI, 2.59-89.51), respectively. Further Person correlation analysis showed a moderate positive correlation between FGF23 and D-serine (r = 0.683, P<0.001).
conclusionThis study provides potential biomarkers for the early detection of hearing impairment complicated by chronic renal failure, and the reduction of FGF23/D-serine may provide a potential target for the treatment of hearing impairment complicated by chronic renal failure.
