Cardiovascular Risk of Alcohol Consumption due to Renal Impairment: A 10-Year Prospective Study in a Community-Dwelling Japanese Population.

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
aimsThe association between alcohol consumption and the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) varies according to the presence of underlying cardiovascular risk factors. Incorporating such risk factors may be important to effectively reduce harmful alcohol use through health guidance. However, whether the risk of alcohol consumption is affected due to renal impairment remains unclear.
methodsA total of 10,583 community-dwelling Japanese adults (mean age 59.4 (SD 10.1) years; 46% men) were followed for 10 years. Alcohol consumption was categorized into five groups for men: never drinkers, former drinkers, light drinkers (＜20 g/day), moderate drinkers (20-39 g/day), and heavy drinkers (≥ 40 g/day), and four groups for women with moderate and heavy combined. Cox proportional hazards models estimated hazard ratios for incident CVD stratified by the presence or absence of reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (＜60 mL/min/1.73m
resultsAmong men with proteinuria, alcohol consumption was associated with a higher risk of atherosclerotic CVD, whereas an inverse association was observed in men without proteinuria [hazard ratio (95% confidence interval): moderate drinkers without proteinuria, 0.58 (0.34-0.97); moderate drinkers with proteinuria, 3.49 (1.15-10.56)]. Moderate to heavy drinking increased the risk of intracerebral hemorrhage irrespective of the renal status. In women, moderate to heavy drinking was associated with an increased CVD risk only when proteinuria was present. In contrast, a reduced eGFR did not clearly affect the association in either sex.
conclusionsThe CVD risk associated with alcohol consumption may differ according to the renal status, particularly depending on the presence or absence of proteinuria.
