Glomerular filtration rate and comorbidity factors in elderly hospitalizations.
Article in World journal of nephrology, 2025. 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
backgroundWith an increase in the elderly population, the frequency of hospitalizations in recent years has also risen at a rapid pace. This, in turn, has resulted in poor outcomes and costly treatments. Hospitalization rates increase in elderly patients due to a decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR).
aimTo investigate the connection between GFR and comorbidity and reasons for hospitalization in elderly patients.
methodsWe analyzed patients aged 75 years and over who were admitted to the internal medicine clinic of a tertiary hospital in Eskisehir. At admission, we calculated GFR values using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease study formula and classified them into six categories: G1, G2, G3a, G3b, G4, and G5. We analyzed associations with hospitalization diagnoses and comorbidity factors.
resultsThe average age of the patients was 80.8 years (± 4.5 years). GFR was 57.287 ± 29.5 mL/kg/1.73 m
conclusionWhen evaluating geriatric patients, low GFR alone does not provide sufficient information. Patients' comorbid factors should also be taken into account. There is no association between low GFR during hospitalization and hospitalization-related diagnoses. Knowing the GFR value before hospitalization will be more informative in such studies.
