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

Aims: Exposure to particulate matter air pollution ≤2.5 µm (PM Methods: Patients with CKD and T2D on optimized renin-angiotensin system blockade were randomized 1:1 to finerenone or placebo. Key outcomes included composite CV outcomes (CV death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, hospitalization for heart failure); composite kidney outcomes (kidney failure, sustained ≥57 % decrease in eGFR, kidney-related death); combined composite CV and kidney outcomes; and safety. Outcomes were stratified by PM Results: Median PM Conclusions: Increased PM
