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

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited cause of kidney failure and accounts for approximately 5% of ESRD population in the United States. The disorder is characterized by the focal and sporadic development of renal cysts, which increase in size and number with age. Mutations of PKD1 and PKD2 account for most of the cases. Although the clinical manifestations of both gene types overlap completely, PKD1 is associated with more severe disease than PKD2, with larger kidneys and earlier onset of ESRD. In general, renal ultrasonography is commonly used for the diagnosis of ADPKD, and age-dependent criteria have been defined for subjects at risk of PKD1. However, the utility of the PKD1 ultrasound criteria in the clinic setting is unclear because their performance characteristics have not been defined for the milder PKD2 and the gene type for most test subjects is unknown. Recently, highly predictive ultrasound diagnostic criteria have been derived for at-risk subjects of unknown gene type. Additionally, both DNA linkage or gene-based direct sequencing are now available for the diagnosis of ADPKD, especially in subjects with equivocal imaging results, subjects with a negative or indeterminate family history, or in younger at-risk individuals being evaluated as potential living-related kidney donors. Here, we review the clinical utilities and limitations of both imaging- and molecular-based diagnostic tests and outline our approach for the evaluation of individuals suspected to have ADPKD.
