Creatinine and Cystatin C: A Measure of Renal Function in Men With Testosterone-Induced Muscle Hypertrophy.
Article in American journal of men's health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Creatinine (Cr) is often used as a standalone gold standard marker of kidney function. Cystatin C (Cys C) is a less physiologically labile marker of renal function, particularly in certain subgroups. Herein, we analyze trends in cystatin C as compared to creatinine in men on testosterone replacement therapy with varying body mass indices and percent body fat (PBF). This retrospective analysis observes 227 men with testosterone-induced muscle hypertrophy who visited a men's health tertiary care clinic. All participants were characterized as competitive or recreational athletes. In patients with a normal body mass index (BMI), there was no clinically significant correlation between Cr and Cys C. Slight correlation was seen with overweight (
