Diabetes and Mortality among Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease and COVID-19: A Systematic Review, Meta-analysis, and Meta-regression.
Article in Indian journal of nephrology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Introduction: Patients with kidney disease and COVID-19, whether on hemodialysis (HD) or not, have a higher risk of contracting COVID-19 accompanied by a higher mortality rate due to suppressed immune functions. Diabetes, one of the ubiquitous etiology of kidney disease, is also associated with a composite of poor outcomes. Methods: Meta-analysis and meta-regression of 13 articles on COVID-19 patients with chronic kidney disease, with information on diabetes and mortality were performed using Review Manager 5.4 and OpenMetaAnalyst. Results: The meta-analysis of a pooled subject of 18,822 patients showed that the presence of diabetes in CKD patients with COVID-19 was associated with an increased risk of mortality (RR 1.41 (1.15, 1.72); Conclusions: Diabetes was associated with higher mortality risk among CKD patients, primarily those who did not need RRT.
