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

Background and Aims: The burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression remains notably high among patients with CKD, resulting to adverse clinical outcomes. However, there is scarcity of data on CKD progression in patients with cardiorenal anaemia syndrome (CRAS). This study aimed to examine the clinical profile and identity the determinants of CKD progression in patients with CRAS. Methods: We conducted a descriptive post-hoc prospective observational study using data from a previously completed prospective cohort study between August 2023 and April 2024 at the cardiology clinic of Benjamin Mkapa Hospital, Dodoma. Adult patients (≥ 18 years) diagnosed with CRAS were included. Baseline demographic and clinical data were analysed. CKD progression was determined based on changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) within 6 months. Determinants of CKD progression were determined and analysed. During exploratory analyses, both descriptive and inferential methods were employed. A statistical significance set at two-sided Results: A total of 112 patients with CRAS with the mean age of 57.84 (14.53 S.D) years were analysed. At baseline, 54.5% (61/112) were ≤ 60 years, and 56.2% (63/112) being female. The median creatinine was 171 (96-351) mmol/L with a mean Conclusion: There is high burden of CKD progression among patients with CRAS. Therefore, targeted intervention is beneficial to retard CKD progression in this high-risk population.
