Long-term use of proton pump inhibitors was associated with rapid progression to end stage kidney disease in a Korean nationwide study.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are among the most widely used drugs worldwide. However, their influence on the progression of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in established chronic kidney disease (CKD) cases is unclear. Using the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment database encoded by the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership-Common Data Model (OMOP-CDM), patients with stage 3 or 4 CKD initiating PPIs or histamine-2 receptor antagonists (H2RAs) for over 90 days were enrolled from 2012 through 2021. Incidence of ESKD events between the groups were compared using a cox proportional hazard model. A total of 34,656 eligible patients were included. Of the patients, 65.1% had CKD stage 3, 44.5% aged > 75 years, 59.8% were male individuals, and 68.3% had diabetes. After 1:1 propensity score matching, ESKD progression was observed in 2327 out of 19,438 patients and it was more frequent in PPI users (incidence rate, 10.5/100PYs) than that in H2RA users (incidence rate, 9.2/100PYs; IRR, 1.14 [1.07-1.12]). Using the subgroup analysis, IRR was significantly higher in patients with CKD stage 3 (IRR 1.40 [1.21-1.60]), whereas it was not in those with CKD stage 4 (IRR 1.04 [0.94-1.15]). A similar trend was observed in patients with CKD 3 or 4 with and without diabetes. In general, PPI use is associated with a 14% higher risk of ESKD progression in patients with CKD stage 3 or 4. However, the influence of PPIs differed according to the comorbidities and risks of adverse kidney outcomes.
