Association between frailty and bone health in early-stage chronic kidney disease: a study from the population-based CARTaGENE cohort.
Article in Clinical kidney journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: Frailty is a clinical syndrome that is particularly prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We aimed to assess the associations between renal function and the presence of frailty criteria and to assess the association between frailty and bone outcomes. Methods: We have conducted a retrospective study from a population-based cohort, which represents 1% of people aged 40-69 years in a Canadian province, excluding individuals with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <30 mL/min/1.73 m Results: Overall, 19 973 individuals were included: mean ± standard deviation age 54.2 ± 7.8 years, women 51.6%, 47.0% CKD stage G2, 3.9% CKD stage G3, 34.8% with at least one frailty criterion. We observed a U-shaped association between eGFR and the odds ratio (OR) of presenting at least one frailty criterion, with a minimum OR around 77 mL/min/1.73 m Conclusion: In conclusion, having at least one frailty criterion was associated with a higher risk of fracture and a lower bone mineral density.
