Ca(2+)/Finding

One finding, on its own

A single claim from the graph, with the evidence strength computed from its study, the sentence it was drawn from, and the paper. This address does not change.

  • Ca(2+) — increases serum creatinine concentration

    Evidence strength: moderate.Finding
    “After controlling for characteristics listed in Table 3, year one creatinine values were on average 0.013±0.006 mg/dL (mean ± SE) higher in the calcium treatment group than the control group (P = 0.03).”
