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

Objective: Arterial stiffness may contribute to decline in kidney function, but it is unknown whether the association of arterial stiffness with kidney function might be influenced by genetic risk. We aimed to investigate the association of arterial stiffness evaluated by brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and polygenic score (PRS) with kidney function and the interaction between baPWV and PRS in middle-aged and older Chinese adults. Methods: We included 13,494 participants with an average age of 68 years from the Dongfeng-Tongji cohort in 2018. A PRS was calculated using 67 variants associated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Results: A total of 1,939 (14.4%) participants were defined as chronic kidney disease (CKD) (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m Conclusions: BaPWV was associated with both reduced eGFR and elevated CKD risk, especially in the participants with high genetic risk.
