Article in Clinical kidney journal, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03384121 (Rifampin to Reduce Elevated Levels of Blood and Urine Calcium in Patients With Idiopathic Infantile Hypercalcemia), which is not on this map. Cited by 4 papers.

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.

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.

Abstract

This case report presents fluoconazole efficacy to reduce hypercalcaemia and increased urinary calcium excretion in a patient with nephrocalcinosis after a long history of recurrent renal stones caused by a loss-of-function mutation of the CYP24A1 gene. The CYP24A1 gene codes for a key enzyme in the vitamin D endocrine system that protects against vitamin D toxicity by degrading the circulating excess of both 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, the hormonal form of vitamin D, and its precursor, 25-hydroxyvitamin D. In order to expedite the identification of this rare disorder and improve therapies to avoid its progression to nephrocalcinosis, this editorial updates the current knowledge on the frequency of CYP24A1-inactivating mutations, the features of their early clinical presentation and progression, and the pathophysiology of vitamin D activation in health and in granulomatous disorders that may help improve current treatment.
