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

backgroundEquations for estimation glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) have been associated with poor clinical performance and their clinical accuracy and reliability have been called into question.

aimTo assess the longitudinal changes in measured glomerular filtration rate (mGFR) in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).

methodsAnalysis of an ambispective data base conducted on consecutive patients diagnosed with ADPKD. The mGFR was assessed by iohexol clearance; while eGFR was calculated by three different formulas: (1) The chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI); (2) Modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD); and (3) The 24-hour urine creatinine clearance (CrCl). The primary end-points were the mean change in mGFR between the baseline and final visit, as well as the comparison of the mean change in mGFR with the change estimated by the different formulas.

resultsThirty-seven patients were included in the study. As compared to baseline, month-6 mGFR was significantly decrease by -4.4 mL/minute ± 10.3 mL/minute (

conclusionThis study indicated that eGFR inaccurately reflects the decline in mGFR and cannot reliably track changes over time. This poses significant challenges for clinical decision-making, particularly in treatment strategies.
