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

Introduction: Although large randomized control trials have established the renal benefits of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) in chronic kidney disease (CKD), real-world evidence in Chinese CKD populations remains scarce. Here we report a multicenter real-world retrospective cohort study of SGLT2i use in hospitalized CKD patients in China. Methods: We enrolled 155,053 adults with CKD from the China Renal Data System (CRDS) databases (January 2002-January 2023). We included patients treated with SGLT2i for at least 3 months. SGLT2i users and nonusers were matched (1:2) using propensity score matching (PSM). The main outcomes included renal, safety, and clinical outcomes. Renal outcomes included the first occurrence of CKD progression, end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), or composite outcomes. Multivariable Cox regression models and cumulative incidence were estimated post-PSM. Results: Overall, the core analysis included 1,477 SGLT2i users and 2,674 nonusers. The progression of CKD (HR 0.81, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.69-0.95, Conclusion: These findings suggest that SGLT2i offers substantial renal and cardiovascular benefits for Chinese CKD patients.
