Serum Phenylacetylglutamine among Potential Risk Factors for Arterial Stiffness Measuring by Carotid-Femoral Pulse Wave Velocity in Patients with Kidney Transplantation.
Article in Toxins, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Phenylacetylglutamine (PAG), a gut microbiota metabolite, is associated with cardiovascular diseases. Arterial stiffness (AS), which is a marker of aging-associated vascular diseases, is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to assess the correlation between serum PAG levels and AS in kidney transplantation (KT) patients, potentially uncovering new insights into the cardiovascular risks in this population. In this study, 100 KT patients were included. Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) was measured, and patients with cfPWV > 10 m/s were categorized as the AS group. Serum PAG levels were assessed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Thirty KT patients (30.0%) exhibited AS, with higher percentages of diabetes mellitus, older age, and elevated levels of systolic blood pressure, serum fasting glucose, and PAG than the control group. After adjusting for factors significantly associated with AS by multivariate logistic regression analysis, serum PAG, age, fasting glucose levels, and systolic blood pressure were independent factors associated with AS. Furthermore, PAG levels had a negative correlation with the estimated glomerular filtration rate and a positive correlation with cfPWV values. Serum PAG levels are positively associated with cfPWV values and are a biomarker of AS in KT patients.
