Different cardiovascular risks associated with elevated creatinine-based eGFR and cystatin C-based eGFR.
Article in NPJ cardiovascular health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
To compare the association of elevated estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) based on creatinine (eGFRcr) and cystatin C (eGFRcys) with the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and chronic kidney diseases (CKD). 372,060 participants free of CVD and CKD in the UK Biobank were included. Participants were categorized into low, normal and high eGFR groups according to the age- and sex-specific 5th and 95th percentiles of eGFR. The primary outcome was incident CVD, defined as a combination of ischemic heart disease, stroke, heart failure, and atrial fibrillation. Thresholds for high eGFR varied with age and sex, ranging from 96.5 to 116.0 mL/min/1.73 m
