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

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a major complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) affecting individuals with type 1 or type 2 DM and is the leading cause of chronic kidney disease and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in the USA. Estimates of disease burden are projected to increase, with prevalence of nearly one in five adults by 2050. The role of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibition in delaying the progression of DN utilizing angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers has been well established in multiple controlled trials. Given greater reduction of proteinuria with dual RAAS blockade compared to monotherapy alone, the potential benefit of dual therapy on progression of DN has been tested in three large randomized clinical trials. Unfortunately, results from these studies demonstrated lack of benefit of dual blockade on renal or cardiovascular outcomes in patients with diabetes. The overall objectives of this review are to provide both the rationale for dual blockade as potential therapy as well as review the literature of its use in patients with DN.
