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

Background: End stage renal disease (ESRD) is an increasing worldwide epidemic disease. CHA2DS2-VASc score is a well-established predictor of cardiovascular outcome among atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. Objective: The aim of this study was to test whether CHA2DS2-VASc score is a good predictor for incident ESRD events. Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study (from January 2010 to December 2020) with median follow-up of 61.7 months. Clinical parameters and baseline characteristics were recorded. The endpoint was defined as ESRD with dialysis dependent. Results: The study cohort comprised 29,341 participants. Their median age was 71.0 years, 43.2% were male, 21.5% had diabetes mellitus, 46.1% had hypertension, and mean CHA2DS2-VASc score was 2.89. CHA2DS2-VASc score was incrementally associated with the risk of ESRD status during follow-up. Using the univariate Cox model, we found a 26% increase in ESRD risk with an increase of one point in the CHA2DS2-VASc score (HR 1.26 [1.23-1.29], P < 0.001). And using the multi-variate Cox model adjusted by initial CKD stage, we still observed a 5.9% increase in risk of ESRD with a one-point increase in the CHA2DS2-VASc score (HR 1.059 [1.037-1.082], P < 0.001). The CHA2DS2-VASC score and the initial stage of CKD were associated with the risk of ESRD development in patients with AF. Conclusions: Our results first confirmed the utility of CHA2DS2-VASC score in predicting progression to ESRD in AF patients. The efficiency is best in CKD stage 1.
