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: Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in children is typically calculated using the Schwartz equation. Recently developed equations, such as the Chronic Kidney Disease in Children Under 25 (CKiD U25) and the European Kidney Function Consortium (EKFC) formulas are increasingly used; however, validation studies in Korean pediatric populations remain limited. We compared the performance of eight eGFR equations (including the CKiD U25, EKFC, updated bedside Schwartz, and Schwartz cystatin C equations) using data from Korean children. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 221 pediatric patients (aged 2-18 yrs) who underwent Results: Bias (mL/[min · 1.73 m Conclusions: Creatinine-cystatin C-based equations can aid in providing more accurate kidney function assessments in Korean children.
