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

Introduction: The association between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria with incident frailty in generally healthy older individuals is unclear. We investigated whether baseline eGFR or urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) are associated with incident frailty and assessed them using 2 separate methods: a modified Fried frailty phenotype (FP), and a deficit accumulation frailty index (FI). Methods: This was a secondary analysis of the ASPirin in Reducing Events in the Elderly (ASPREE) randomized trial cohort, which enrolled independent, healthy, older adults aged ≥65 years in Australia and the USA. Time to incident frailty was analyzed using discrete time survival analysis. Results: In total, 16,965 participants were included using the FP, mean age was 75.0 ± 4.5 years, median baseline eGFR was 78.6 ml/min per 1.73 m Conclusion: In older, generally healthy adults, both low and high eGFRs were associated with increased risk of incident frailty. Doubling of UACR, even at low levels, was independently associated with incident frailty.
