Modified cut-off value of the urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio is helpful for identifying patients at high risk for chronic kidney disease in prediabetes.

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
backgroundPrediabetes is associated with higher risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), however studies investigating the prognostic index for incident CKD in patients with prediabetes are lacking. Thus, the present study aims to find the risk factors for CKD in prediabetic population.
methodsWe included 1220 prediabetic participants without CKD in the REACTION study and examined the associations of clinical indicators with CKD incidence with 3.6 years of follow-up using logistic regression analyses. To explore the nonlinear relationship between the Urine Albumin-To-Creatinine Ratio (UACR) and the hazard ratio (HR) of CKD, a Restricted Cubic Spline (RCS) analysis was conducted. Logistic regression analysis was employed to assess the association between UACR categories and the risk of CKD incidence.
resultsThere were 78 (6.4%) individuals developed CKD, and elevated UACR was observed in patients who developed CKD. UACR was an independent risk factor of CKD after adjusting for covariates and RCS presented an association between elevated UACR and higher risk of CKD incidence. UACR cutoff points of 7.54 mg/g overall was associated with the risk of CKD progression. In comparison to a UACR range of 0-7.54 mg/g (B1), those who falling within the ranges of 7.54-14.95 (B2), 14.95-22.36 (B3), and 22.36-30 (B4), exhibited a significantly increased risk of CKD development. eGFR below the threshold of 81.64 mL/min/1.73m
conclusionIn conclusion, the novel UACR cutoff of 7.54 mg/g serves as an effective tool to identify individuals at high risk of developing CKD-ACR during the prediabetes stage.
