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

Systemic inflammation, which can be measured by high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), may play a crucial role in the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). In this study, we report longitudinal outcomes from 718 individuals with T2D, followed up for up to 24 years, to assess how hsCRP influences the development and progression of CKD, measured by urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR)/estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Longitudinal renal function analysis showed numerical trends towards greater mean eGFR decline (-20.6 ml/min in the lowest Q1 vs. -26.4 ml/min in the highest Q4 baseline hsCRP quartile) and greater fold increase in uACR (1.93 in Q1 vs. 2.91 in Q4) across hsCRP quartiles. However, in multivariate linear regression analyses, baseline hsCRP was not an independent predictor of eGFR decline (
