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

Severe arterial hypertension rarely occurs in the neonatal period but may have life-threatening consequences. It is most often caused by renal parenchymal or vascular abnormality, which, to be accurately diagnosed, may require a combination of imaging modalities. We report on a case of neonatal hypertension presenting as cardiac failure. Initial imaging suggested unilateral renal artery stenosis, but this was not corroborated by magnetic resonance angiography. Surgical nephrectomy was curative for the hypertension and also allowed diagnosis of renal tubular dysgenesis. Unilateral congenital tubular dysgenesis without renal infarction has not been previously reported. We speculate that the condition was secondary to a period of localised hypoperfusion during early foetal life.
