Positive Association of Serum Galectin-3 with the Development of Aortic Stiffness of Patients on Peritoneal Dialysis.

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
A novel cardiovascular stress biomarker known as galectin-3 might be useful for anticipating adverse cardiovascular outcomes. The objective of the current investigation was to assess the association between serum galectin-3 levels and aortic stiffness (AS) in 196 patients on peritoneal dialysis. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent examination and a cuff-based volumetric displacement were employed to determine the levels of serum galectin-3 and the carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), respectively. The AS group had 48 patients in total (24.5%) with cfPWV greater than 10 m/s. The AS group, when compared with the group without AS, had a significantly higher prevalence of diabetes mellitus and hypertension in addition to greater fasting glucose levels, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, and serum galectin-3 levels. Multivariate logistic and linear regression analysis demonstrated that serum glactin-3 levels, in addition to gender and age, were significantly and independently associated with cfPWV and AS. Serum galectin-3 levels were linked with AS, according to a receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, with an area under the curve of 0.648 (95% confidence interval, 0.576-0.714;
