Elevated Uric Acid Levels with Early Chronic Kidney Disease as an Indicator of New-Onset Ischemic Heart Disease: A Cohort of Koreans without Diabetes.
Article in Biomedicines, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Several studies have showed that hyperuricemia is related to the development of ischemic heart disease (IHD). There is also growing evidence indicating that hyperuricemia may contribute to the progression of IHD as a pathogenic factor. Ironically, uric acid can be an antioxidant agent, as shown in experimental studies. The aim of our study is to analyse the association between uric acid and IHD with early-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD). Data were assessed from 17,492 participants without cardiovascular disease from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES) and Korea Health Insurance Review and Assessment (HIRA) data. The subjects were categorized as four groups according to CKD and uric acid levels. We retrospectively evaluated hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for IHD by using multivariate Cox regression analysis over a 4-year period from the baseline survey. During the follow-up, 335 individuals (3.4%; 236 men and 99 women) developed IHD. Compared to the participants without elevated uric acid and early CKD HRs for incident IHD according to uric acid levels and early CKD, the uric acid level was 1.13 (95% CI, 0.86-1.48) in participants with elevated uric acid and without early CKD, 0.99 (95% CI, 0.55-1.77) in participants without elevated uric acid and with early CKD, and 1.65 (95% CI, 1.03-2.66) in participants with elevated uric acid and early CKD after adjusting for confounding metabolic factors. Early CKD and high uric acid levels increased the risk of new-onset IHD (HR, 1.65; 95% CI, 1.03-2.66). Elevated uric acid levels were related to an increased risk of incident IHD in early-stage CKD patients. It is expected that uric acid can be a reliable predictor for IHD, even in early-stage CKD patients; thus, in those with CKD, proactively managing uric acid levels can play a significant role in reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.
