SGLT2 inhibitors preserve serum chloride in non-diabetic CKD: a propensity-matched and LASSO regression analysis.
Article in Renal failure, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) are novel renoprotective agents for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and have diverse effects, including on the regulation of electrolyte balance. However, their effects on serum chloride concentrations remain unclear. We conducted a retrospective single-center study of 343 CKD patients without diabetes or proteinuria who were not taking diuretics, including 202 SGLT2i users and 141 non-users, and applied propensity score (PS) matching and LASSO regression analysis. The outcomes were the change in chloride concentration with adjustment for covariates, before and after PS matching. Factors associated with these changes were identified using multivariable analysis and LASSO regression. An adjusted linear mixed effects model showed that the annual changes in chloride concentration for the non-SGLT2i and SGLT2i users were -0.39 (95% CI: -0.61 to 0.17) mEq/L/year and 0.49 (95% CI: -0.02 to 1.00) mEq/L/year, respectively [difference 0.88 (95% CI: 0.58 to 1.17) mEq/L/year] (
