Sexually dimorphic response to tobacco in the development of chronic kidney disease: a systematic review.
Synthesis in BMC nephrology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionChronic kidney disease (CKD) demonstrates a complex interaction with tobacco exposure and sex differences, where females and males may experience varying risks and outcomes. This study aims to investigate how sex differences mediate the relationship between tobacco exposure and CKD development, with a secondary focus on regional variability and social determinants of health. STUDY SELECTION AND CRITERIA: Comprehensive searches on MEDLINE, EMBASE, clinicaltrials.gov, and MedRxiv until October 6, 2022, were conducted. Eligibility criteria involved any study that reported primary data on the prevalence of CKD, with information pertaining to both sex and tobacco exposure. DATA EXTRACTION: Data retrieved include patient socio-demographic characteristics, general study information, diagnostic methods, social determinants of health, and the cause of CKD (e.g., tobacco-related or non-tobacco-related).
resultsStudies were selected through a comprehensive search using key terms such as "chronic kidney disease," "smoking," and "sex differences," which identified 3,025 articles, of which 28 were selected for full texts after screening titles, abstracts. Among the 28 included studies, smoking was consistently identified as a significant risk factor for CKD, with notable disparities related to sex, socioeconomic status, race, and urban versus rural settings. Significant geographical variability in CKD prevalence was observed, ranging from 2.5% to 68.1%, with the highest prevalence in Asia. However, due to high heterogeneity and methodological limitations, a meta-analysis of CKD prevalence stratified by sex and tobacco exposure was not feasible.
conclusionsThe findings emphasize the need for further research to comprehend the intricate relationship between, tobacco exposure, sex, and CKD management, as well as the consideration of cultural, geographical, socioeconomic, political, and structural factors when understanding the pathophysiology and management of CKD.
