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

purposeAdiponectin may be beneficial in incipient chronic kidney disease by antagonizing oxidative stress. We evaluated adiponectin, malondialdehyde (MDA), and superoxide dismutase (SOD), in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (T2DP) with and without incipient nephropathy.

methodsT2DP with glomerular filtration rate (GFR) >30 ml/min were compared with 20 healthy controls. Clinical and laboratory evaluations, levels of MDA (fluorimetric thiobarbituric test), SOD (cytochrome reduction method) and adiponectin (ELISA) were obtained.

resultsSixty-four patients (GFR 91.44 ± 38.50 ml/min, urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio [UACR] 20.81 [4.64-72.88 mg/g]) were included. MDA was higher in T2DP than in controls: 3.97 (2.43-4.59) versus 1.35 (1.16-1.81) nmol/ml, p < 0.0001. MDA correlated with glycated hemoglobin (r = 0.40, p = 0.001), adiponectin (r = -0.28, p = 0.03), systolic blood pressure (r = -0.28, p = 0.03) and SOD (r = -0.35, p = 0.005); adiponectin (p = 0.01) and glycated hemoglobin (p = 0.02) remained significant predictors of MDA in multiple regression analysis. SOD was negatively correlated with glycemia (r = -0.71, p < 0.0001) and glycated hemoglobin (r = -0.5, p < 0.0001). When patients were divided according to a ROC-derived adiponectin cutoff of 8.9 µg/ml, patients with higher adiponectin had lower MDA, [2.55 (2.35-3.60) vs. 4.10 (2.89-5.31) nmol/ml, p = 0.005] but similar SOD levels. In T2DP with nephropathy (GFR < 60 ml/min or UACR > 30 mg/g), the correlation of adiponectin with MDA was stronger, (r = -0.51, p = 0.004) confirmed in multiple regression analysis (p = 0.03). Adiponectin was not correlated with MDA, and SOD was inversely related to MDA in patients without nephropathy.

conclusionAdiponectin is a significant predictor of MDA in early diabetic nephropathy, whereas SOD strongly depends only on glycemic control and is not directly related to adiponectin.
