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

Objective: The interplay of gut microbiota with the kidney system in chronic kidney disease (CKD), is characterized by increased concentrations of uric acid in the gut, which in turn, may increase bacterial uricase activity and may lead to the generation of uremic toxins. Nevertheless, knowledge on these underlying bidirectional molecular mechanisms is still limited. Methods: In this exploratory study, proteomic analysis was performed on fecal samples, targeting to investigate this largely unexplored biological material as a source of information reflecting the gut-kidney axis. Specifically, fecal suspension samples from patients with CKD1 ( Results: This fecal proteomic analysis collectively identified 701 human and 1011 bacterial proteins of high confidence. Differential expression analysis (CKD4/CKD1) revealed significant changes in human proteins ( Conclusion: Collectively, this exploratory fecal proteomic analysis highlighted changes in human and bacterial proteins reflecting inflammation and reduced saccharolytic fermentation in CKD4/CKD1, plausibly affecting the butyrate synthesis pathways in advanced stage kidney disease. Integrative multi-omics validation is planned.
