Comparisons of risk factors for post-treatment renal dysfunction between the two major subtypes of primary aldosteronism.

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
objectiveAldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) and bilateral idiopathic hyperaldosteronism (IHA) are the most common subtypes of primary aldosteronism (PA), and the PA subtype dictates the treatment options. This study aimed to identify predictors of declined estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) following each treatment in patients with APA and IHA.
methodsWe retrospectively investigated 45 patients with APA who had undergone adrenalectomy (ADX) and 37 patients with IHA who had received treatment with a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) to identify pre-treatment risk factors for eGFR decline during the post-treatment follow-up period.
resultsPatients with APA who underwent ADX exhibited higher eGFR declines than patients with IHA treated with MRA at the 6-month post-treatment evaluation point. A high preoperative plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) in patients with APA and a high body mass index (BMI) in patients with IHA were identified as independent predictors of higher eGFR decline at 6 months post-treatment (β=0.42 and β=0.36, respectively). In patients with APA, the cutoff PAC to best predict a 20% decrease in eGFR following ADX, as determined by receiver operating characteristic analysis, was 524 pg/mL. In patients with IHA, the cutoff BMI to best predict a 10% decrease in eGFR following MRA administration was 25.3 kg/m
conclusionsGreater attention should be given to the above-mentioned risk factors to prevent renal impairment following each treatment in patients with both APA and IHA.
