Association Between Dietary Quality and Serum Cystatin C in Kidney Transplant Recipients Based on Chinese Diet Balance Index 2016 (DBI-16).

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
BACKGROUND Cystatin C (Cys) is considered to be a better marker than serum creatinine in assessing kidney function, predicting cardiovascular events, and all-cause mortality. It seems to be associated with nutritional status in the general population, but little is known about kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). This study aimed to explore the relationship between dietary balance index and serum Cys in KTRs. MATERIAL AND METHODS In a cross-sectional study, 215 KTRs completed an FFQ questionnaire and information on serum Cys. Dietary intake was assessed using the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Dietary Balance Index 2016 (DBI-16) edition scores were calculated as an indicator of dietary quality. Data on the patient's serum Cys were obtained through the hospital information system. RESULTS The majority of KTRs were male (75.34%), 76.74% were aged 18-44 years, and 79.53% were abnormal serum Cys. Dairy (z=-2.161, P<0.05), meat (z=-2.578, P<0.05), and dietary diversity (z=-3.393, P<0.05) in the normal group were higher than those in the abnormal group, and the dietary quality distance (DQD) score (t=-2.264, P<0.05) was lower than that in the abnormal group. After adjusting for confounders, a low-quality diet was a risk factor for maintaining the normal level of serum Cys (OR 3.022, 95% CI 1.263-7.231, P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The present study suggested that KTRs with a high dietary quality might be associated with normal serum Cys levels. Dairy, meat, and varied diet seems to impact the serum Cys levels of KTRs. Dietary imbalances were prevalent among KTRs.
