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

Maladaptive activation of the immune system plays a key role in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Our aim was to investigate differences in circulating immune cells between type 2 cardiorenal syndrome (CRS-2) patients and CKD patients without cardiovascular disease (CVD). CRS-2 patients were prospectively followed up, with the primary endpoint being all-cause and cardiovascular mortality.

methodA total of 39 stable males with CRS-2 and 24 male CKD patients matched for eGFR (CKD-EPI) were enrolled. A selected panel of immune cell subsets was measured by flow cytometry.

resultsCompared to CKD patients, CRS-2 patients displayed higher levels of proinflammatory CD14++CD16+ monocytes (

conclusionPatients with CRS-2 exhibit alterations in immune cell profile compared to CKD patients of similar kidney function but without CVD. In the CRS-2 cohort, CD4+ T-lymphocytes independently predicted fatal cardiovascular events.
