Annual variation of estimated glomerular filtration rate in health check-ups associated with end-stage kidney disease.

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
Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) variation is associated with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) development in patients with chronic kidney disease; whether annual variations in eGFR at health check-ups is associated with ESKD risk in the general population is unclear. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using Japanese national medical insurance claims from 2013 to 2020. Individuals who had their eGFR levels measured three times in annual health check-ups were included (N = 115,191), and the coefficient of variation of eGFR (CVeGFR) was calculated from 3-point eGFR. The end-point was ESKD as reported in the claims data. We analyzed the association between CVeGFR and ESKD incidence after adjusting for conventional ESKD risk factors. The CVeGFR median distribution was 5.7% (interquartile range: 3.5-8.5%). During a median follow-up period of 3.74 years, 164 patients progressed to ESKD. ESKD incidence was significantly higher in the highest quartile group (CVeGFR ≥ 8.5%) than in the other groups (P < 0.0001). After adjusting for risk factors, individuals with CVeGFR ≥ 8.5% had a significantly high ESKD incidence (adjusted hazard ratio: 3.01; 95% CI 2.14-4.30). High CVeGFR in annual health check-ups was associated with high ESKD incidence, independent of its other conventional risk factors, in the general population.
