Incident chronic kidney disease among Canadian immigrants: a population-based cohort study.
Article in BMJ public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: A 'healthy immigrant effect' has been demonstrated for a number of chronic health conditions including cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus and dementia; however, the link between immigrant status and kidney health remains uncertain. We sought to compare the risk for incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) between Canadian immigrants and non-immigrants. Methods: We conducted a population-level, observational cohort study of all adult (≥18 years of age) Ontario residents, including foreign-born immigrant Canadian citizens and non-immigrant Canadian citizens by birth, with normal baseline kidney function (outpatient estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥70 mL/min/1.73 m Results: The study cohort included 10 440 210 Ontario residents, consisting of 22% immigrants (n=2 253 360) and 78% (n=8 186 850) non-immigrants. The mean (SD) age and eGFR were 45 (17) years and 102 (16) mL/min/1.73 m Conclusion: Immigrants experience a lower risk for incident CKD compared with non-immigrants. These findings provide evidence of a 'healthy immigrant effect' in relation to kidney health.
