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: Emerging evidence indicates a potential correlation between remnant cholesterol (RC) and the development of vascular damage and hypertension. Nevertheless, the precise relationship between RC and hypertension in relation to renal function remains uncertain. The objective of this investigation was to employ a cohort design to evaluate the intricate correlation between RC and renal function in relation to hypertension. Methods: The present investigation utilized data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), encompassing a total of 5,109 participants, for comprehensive data analysis and examination. Cox regression analysis was employed to examine the interplay among RC, renal function, and hypertension within the context of this research study. This study utilized restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis to elucidate the interaction between RC, renal function, and hypertension, specifically examining the mediating role of renal function in the RC-hypertension nexus. Furthermore, we employed mediation analysis to investigate the potential mediating role of renal function in the association between RC and hypertension. Results: After a 9-year follow-up period, the incidence of hypertension in the population under investigation was observed to be 19.01%. The Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrated a notable and statistically significant elevation in the prevalence of hypertension within the subgroup characterized by higher RC and impaired renal function (P <0.001). However, in Cox regression analyses, the risk of developing hypertension was significantly higher ( Conclusion: The findings of this study unveiled a substantial correlation between elevated RC, diminished eGFR levels, and the risk of developing hypertension. In addition, renal function may mediate the correlation between RC and hypertension risk.
