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

aimsWe investigated the efficacy of dapagliflozin, which is a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor, on uric acid (UA) in individuals with moderate-to-severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) (stage G3-4).

methodsWe retrospectively studied 46 patients (mean age: 66.6 ± 14.1 years; 32 men and 14 women) after 12 months of dapagliflozin treatment. We recorded the change in UA and urine protein. All of the patients had moderate-to-severe CKD (mean estimated glomerular filtration rate: 35.9 ± 10.9 mL/min/1.73 m

resultsUA concentrations significantly decreased from baseline to 12 months in the dapagliflozin group (6.4 ± 1.2 mg/dL to 5.6 ± 1.4 mg/dL, probability (p) < 0.05) but UA concentrations did not change in the control group. In addition, UA concentrations were significantly lower in the dapagliflozin group than in the control group at 12 months (5.6 ± 1.4 mg/dL vs. 6.4 ± 1.4 mg/dL, p < 0.05). UA concentrations significantly decreased from baseline to 12 months in patients with CKD stage G3 in the dapagliflozin group at 12 months (6.4 ± 0.9 mg/dL to 5.4 ± 1.0 mg/dL, p < 0.05) but UA concentrations did not change in patients with CKD stage G4.

conclusionsDapagliflozin can decrease UA concentrations in patients with moderate CKD. This finding suggests that dapagliflozin has a beneficial effect on UA metabolism in patients with moderate CKD.
