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
backgroundThe primary aim of this study is to explore the relationship between serum levels of LOX-1, hs-cTnT, and NGAL, and renal function in patients with CKD, as well as to evaluate their diagnostic value for early detection and monitoring of disease progression in CKD patients.
methodsA retrospective study was conducted on 108 patients with chronic kidney disease admitted to our hospital from January 2023 to December 2023. The patients were divided into the mild renal insufficiency group (51 cases) and the severe renal insufficiency group (57 cases). The differences in serum levels of LOX-1, hs-cTnT, and NGAL between the two groups were compared, and Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between the three levels and renal function. ROC analysis was used to evaluate the predictive value of the three markers for the diagnosis of CKD.
resultsThe levels of LOX-1, hs-cTnT, and NGAL in the mild renal insufficiency group were lower than those in the severe renal insufficiency group (P < 0.05). Correlation analysis showed that serum levels of LOX-1, hs-cTnT, and NGAL were positively correlated with the deterioration of renal function (P < 0.001), indicating a significant correlation between LOX-1, hs-cTnT, NGAL levels, and the deterioration of renal function. ROC analysis showed that the AUC of serum levels of LOX-1, hs-cTnT, and NGAL were 0.859, 0.882, and 0.841, indicating a significant predictive value for the diagnosis of chronic kidney disease.
conclusionSerum levels of LOX-1, hs-cTnT, NGAL, and related markers demonstrate a direct association with the extent of renal impairment, offering predictive capabilities for diagnosing CKD.
