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: Alport syndrome (AS) is an inherited kidney disease with significant clinical heterogeneity. Prognosis prediction and risk assessment are important to assist patient care. However, a predictive tool of disease progression is still lacking. Methods: The prediction model was developed in 363 patients (124 kidney failure events) with X-linked AS (XLAS) from a single-center retrospective cohort study and validated in 2 external cohorts, including 193 (27 events) and 125 patients (33 events) with XLAS from 6 centers and the literature database, respectively. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis with stepwise selection was used to select the important variables related to the progression to kidney failure, by using the baseline demographic, clinical, and genetic data. The performance of the prediction model was evaluated and compared using receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calibration plot. Results: There were 4 variables identified that were significantly associated with the progression to kidney failure in the final model, namely sex, proteinuria, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and pathogenic variants in Conclusion: A prediction model of progression to kidney failure based on clinical characteristics and genetic variants was developed and validated in patients with XLAS.
