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

objectiveTo investigate the association between daily sitting time and all-cause mortality, with a focus on the mediating effect and predictive value of the makers relating to kidney.

methodsThe cross-sectional study utilized data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2003 to 2020. The makers relating to kidney were assessed through estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), urine albumin creatinine ratio (UACR), and other relevant markers.

resultsA total of 9,707 adults were included in the analysis. There was a significant increase in the levels of blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, uric acid, osmolality, and UACR with extended daily sitting time, while eGFR significantly decreased. Notably, individuals sitting ≥ 8 h per day exhibited a 67% higher risk of all-cause mortality (HR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.43-1.94). A nonlinear (L-shaped) relationship was observed between eGFR (

conclusionsProlonged daily sitting time is significantly associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality, potentially mediated by impaired kidney function. Incorporating kidney function markers such as eGFR and UACR enhances the predictive value for mortality risk assessment in sedentary populations.
