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

Selenium (Se), an essential trace element, is linked to poor prognosis in heart failure (HF) and kidney disease. Se deficiency (serum Se < 70 μg/L) has been associated with increased cardiovascular mortality. Selenoprotein P (SELENOP), the main Se transporter, reflects bioavailable Se. Selective glomerular hypofiltration syndrome (SGHS), defined by a cystatin C-based eGFR < 0.7 of creatinine-based eGFR, signals early kidney dysfunction and worsens HF outcomes. The prognostic role of SELENOP for SGHS and kidney-related hospitalization in HF remains unclear. PURPOSE: To assess whether SELENOP is associated with SGHS at baseline and future kidney disease hospitalization in acute HF patients.

methodsIn 570 patients hospitalized for acute HF, creatinine and cystatin C were analyzed; SELENOP was measured in the first 320 using an immunoassay. Kidney hospitalizations (ICD-10 N17-N19) were identified from regional registries. Logistic and Cox regression models evaluated SELENOP's association with SGHS and hospitalization risk, adjusting for age, sex, blood pressure, BMI, eGFR and NT-proBNP.

resultsAmong 320 patients (mean age 75 years, 69% male), 58% had Se deficiency, and 30% had SGHS. During a median 43-month follow-up, 28 patients were hospitalized for kidney disease. Higher SELENOP was linked to lower odds of SGHS (OR 0.69;

conclusionsLow SELENOP is associated with SGHS and increased risk of kidney disease hospitalization, especially AKI, suggesting Se status may influence HF and renal outcomes.
