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

Introduction: The new European Kidney Function Consortium (EKFC) eGFR equation uses rescaled serum creatinine (SCr) to an age- and sex-specific normal median value, making it applicable across the entire age spectrum. We evaluated the performance of the recalibrated EKFC Methods: Indian adults (healthy and patients with CKD) were recruited. Plasma iohexol clearance was used to assess measured GFR (mGFR). Indian-specific Q values were derived from healthy individuals, and K from those under the age of 40 years. We evaluated EKFC Results: A total of 1174 participants (615 healthy, 559 CKD), mean age 48 years, with equal sex distribution were recruited. The EKFC Conclusion: Recalibrating EKFC
