1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESKD) are significant global health challenges associated with progressive kidney dysfunction and numerous complications, including cardiovascular disease and mortality. This study aims to explore the potential association between plasma klotho levels and various prognostic outcomes in CKD and ESKD, including all-cause mortality, cardiovascular events, metabolic syndrome development and adverse renal events necessitating renal replacement therapies. Methods: A literature search was conducted through 3 June 2024 using the electronic databases Cochrane Library, Ovid MEDLINE, CINAHL, Web of Science, SCOPUS and PubMed. This systematic review adheres to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Results: Fourteen studies were included. For all-cause mortality, comparing CKD patients with low versus high klotho levels showed a significant association {odds ratio [OR] 1.81 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.34-2.44], Conclusion: Lower serum klotho levels serve as a significant predictor of adverse outcomes, including increased risks of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality and progression to end-stage kidney disease among CKD patients.
