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 kidney disease (diabetic nephropathy), one of the most serious renovascular diabetic complication represents the leading cause of chronic kidney disease worldwide and is characterized clinically by impaired renal functional indices, hypertension, systemic and renal hemodynamic changes and pathologically by a spectrum of glomerulotubulointerstitial and vascular lesions. Diabetic nephropathy is initiated by persistent hyperglycemia and glomerular hyperfiltration and, if untreated, progresses to increasing albuminuria, declining glomerular filtration rate (GFR), development of end-stage renal failure (ESRF) and or enhanced risk of poor cardiovascular outcomes. The emergence of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, a novel class of antidiabetic drugs endowed with a wide range of pleiotropic actions revolutionized care of diabetes and its complications. These drugs reduce major cardiovascular events, heart failure hospitalization, rate of progression of albuminuria, and decline in GFR in both diabetic and non-diabetic patients with preserved or impaired renal function and development of ESRF.
