Effect of EGCG Intake on Kidney Function Chronic Kidney Disease: A Nonlinear Dose-Response Relationship and Health Impact Evidence From US Adults.
Article in Food science & nutrition, 2025. 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
Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a major catechin in tea, has been linked to various health outcomes; however, its association with kidney function remains unclear. This cross-sectional study included 5001 participants from the 2009-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Daily EGCG intake was estimated from two 24-h dietary recalls. Kidney function outcomes included chronic kidney disease (CKD), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR). Multivariable logistic and linear regression models were used to assess associations, and restricted cubic spline (RCS) models were applied to examine potential nonlinear relationships. Per 100 mg/day higher EGCG, CKD odds did not change meaningfully: crude OR 1.03 (95% CI 0.93-1.15;
