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

Background: Cardiovascular disease currently holds the highest morbidity and mortality rates globally. The survival of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) complicated by chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains a significant threat, posing challenges in management and timely treatment. This study aims to explore the relationship between the Albumin-Corrected Anion Gap (ACAG) and the prognosis of patients with CKD Receiving Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. Methods: This was a single-center, retrospective study including 973 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at Tianjin Medical University Second Hospital from January 2019 to June 2023, all with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of less than or equal to 60 mL/min/1.73 m Results: After a follow-up of 918.0 ± 364.7 days, 205 MACEs were recorded. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis identified the optimal cutoff value for trial subjects. Compared to the low-ACAG group, the high-ACAG group exhibited a higher incidence of MACEs (29.65% vs. 15.78%, Conclusions: Among patients undergoing PCI treatment for chronic kidney disease, elevated ACAG levels are closely related to the patient's cardiac mortality and all-cause mortality rates. Additionally, the use of diuretics in patients with CAD and CKD requires caution and should optimize treatment strategies.
