Association Between Decreased Renal Function and Pulmonary Function Decline in Community-dwelling Adults.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND/
aimEmerging evidence suggests that there is a close relationship between the human lung and kidney. This study evaluated whether decreased renal function was associated with accelerated pulmonary function decline in a large-scale community-based cohort. PATIENTS AND
methodsA total of 10,028 subjects of the prospective Ansung-Ansan cohort were eligible for the longitudinal analysis of changes in pulmonary function associated with decreased renal function (glomerular filtration rate <60 ml/min/1.73 m
resultsAt baseline, subjects with and without decreased renal function showed distinct characteristics, and the factors associated with decreased renal function were age, baseline forced vital capacity, hypertension, and white blood cell (WBC) count. A 1:4 PSM of age, sex, body mass index, and smoking status showed that the proportion of those with hypertension and the WBC count differed between the patients with decreased and normal renal function. In the PSM population, those with decreased renal function had a greater decline in forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) than those without (p=0.0402); however, these differences were not found to be evident when hypertension and WBC count were further matched (p=0.0807).
conclusionThe results of our study demonstrated that decreased renal function was not directly associated with the rapid decline in pulmonary function in a community-based general population setting.
