Impact of urine cyclic AMP relative to plasma arginine vasopressin on response to tolvaptan in patients with chronic kidney disease and heart failure.

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
backgroundThe clinical utility of tolvaptan in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with heart failure remains uncertain. The level of urine cyclic adenosine monophosphate (AMP) relative to plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP) indicates the residual function of the collecting ducts in response to AVP stimulation and might be a key to predicting response of tolvaptan.
methodsCKD patients who were hospitalized to treat their congestive heart failure refractory to conventional loop diuretics were considered to receive tolvaptan and included in this prospective study. The impact of urine cyclic AMP/plasma AVP ratio for prediction of response to tolvaptan, which was defined as any increase in urine volume at day 7 from day 0, was investigated.
resultsA total of 30 patients (median 75 years old, 24 men, and median estimated glomerular filtration rate 14.4 mL/min/1.73 m
conclusionsBaseline urine cyclic AMP/plasma AVP ratio is an independent predictor of response to tolvaptan in advanced CKD patients with heart failure. CLINICAL
