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

backgroundGrowth retardation is one of the most visible comorbid conditions of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in children. To our knowledge, published data on longitudinal follow-up of growth in pediatric patients with CKD is lacking from the region of South-East Europe. Herein we report the results from the Serbian Pediatric Registry of Chronic Kidney Disease.

methodsThe data reported in the present prospective analysis were collected between 2000 and 2012. A total of 324 children with CKD were enrolled in the registry.

resultsPrevalence of growth failure at registry entry was 29.3 %. Mean height standard deviation scores (HtSDS) in children with stunting and those with normal stature were -3.00 [95 % confidence interval (CI) -3.21 to -2.79] and -0.08 (95 % CI -0.22 to 0.05) (p < 0.001), respectively. Children with hereditary nephropathy had worse growth at registration (-1.51; 95 % CI -1.97 to -1.04, p = 0.008). Those with CKD stages 4 and 5 before registration had more chance to have short stature at registration than those with CKD stages 2 and 3 [odds ratio (OR) = 0.458, CI 0.268-0.782, p = 0.004]. Dialysis was an independent negative predictor for maintaining optimal stature during the follow-up period (OR = 0.324, CI = 0.199-0.529, p < 0.001), while transplantation was an independent positive predictor for improvement of small stature during follow-up (OR = 3.706, CI = 1.785-7.696, p < 0.001).

conclusionGrowth failure remains a significant problem in children with CKD, being worst in patients with hereditary renal disease. Growth is not improved by standard dialysis, but transplantation has a positive impact on growth in children.
