Glomerular filtration rate in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: is serum isthmin-1 level a possible link?
Article in BMJ open diabetes research & care, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
introductionIsthmin-1 (Ism-1) is a novel adipokine. However, little is known regarding the association between Ism-1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to investigate the relationship between serum Ism-1 levels and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in patients with T2DM. RESEARCH DESIGN AND
methodsA total of 209 patients with T2DM were recruited into this retrospective study. Clinical data were collected. Fasting blood samples were collected for serum Ism-1 testing using ELISA kits. Based on the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), participants were divided into the normal eGFR group (n=167) and the decreased eGFR group (n=42). The relationship between Ism-1 and eGFR was assessed using linear and binary logistic regression analyses. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was employed to examine the predictive efficacy of Ism-1 for distinguishing patients with eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m
resultsCompared with patients with normal eGFR, serum Ism-1 levels were increased in patients with decreased eGFR (p<0.001). Serum Ism-1 levels were negatively correlated with eGFR in patients with T2DM even after multiple adjustments (p<0.001). For each 0.1 ng/mL increment of Ism-1, the odds of having an eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m
conclusionsSerum Ism-1 levels were inversely associated with eGFR, and high Ism-1 levels may be used as a potential biomarker for predicting kidney function impairment in patients with T2DM.
