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

objectivesTo investigate glymphatic function in nondialysis-dependent ESRD (ND-ESRD) patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD) or non-DKD using the diffusion tensor image analysis along the perivascular space (DTI-ALPS) method and choroid plexus (CP) volume to explore the associations among DTI-ALPS index, CP volume, clinical characteristics, and cognitive function.

methods25 DKD patients, 25 non-DKD patients, and 25 healthy control (HC) were included in this study. All participants underwent cerebral MRI and cognitive assessments. Bilateral DTI-ALPS index and CP volume were calculated and were compared among three groups. Correlations among the DTI-ALPS index, CP volume, clinical characteristics, and cognitive function were analyzed.

resultsDKD patients had significantly lower left DTI-ALPS index (

conclusionsGlymphatic system dysfunction may contribute to the pathogenesis of clinical and cognitive impairment in ND-ESRD patients especially with DKD.
