Early biomarkers of nephrotoxicity associated with the use of anti-VEGF drugs.
Article in Biomedical reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
Anti-angiogenic anticancer drugs that block vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) can cause kidney damage. An early assessment of the risk of nephrotoxicity would allow the development of optimal treatment approaches and allow for relatively safer therapeutic regimens. The aim of this study was to assess the utility of neutrophilic gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), kidney injury molecule 1 (KIM-1), hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and nephrin levels in urine as early biomarkers for the nephrotoxicity of anti-VEGF drugs. The study included 50 patients who received anti-VEGF drugs (aflibercept, bevacizumab or ramucirumab) for 8 weeks. The levels of KIM-1, NGAL, HIF-1α and nephrin in urine samples were determined by ELISA before treatment and after 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks of treatment. To assess risk factors for nephrotoxicity, a logistic regression analysis was performed with the inclusion of the primary clinical and laboratory parameters. The primary outcome measure was a decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) to <60 ml/min/1.73 m
