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

Tolvaptan (Jinarc(®)) is a highly selective vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist indicated for use in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Tolvaptan is the first pharmaceutical agent to be approved in Europe for delaying the progression of ADPKD in adults with stage 1-3 chronic kidney disease at initiation of treatment. In the large phase III TEMPO 3:4 trial in adults with ADPKD, 3 years' treatment with oral tolvaptan significantly reduced growth in total kidney volume and slowed renal function decline relative to placebo. Tolvaptan was also associated with a significantly lower rate of events for the composite secondary endpoint of time to investigator-assessed clinical progression relative to placebo, an effect that was largely attributable to reductions in the risk of worsening renal function and the risk of worsening kidney pain. Many of the most common adverse events in the tolvaptan group were related to its aquaretic mechanism of action (e.g. polyuria, nocturia, polydipsia and thirst). Tolvaptan was also associated with idiosyncratic elevations of liver enzymes which were reversible on discontinuation of the drug. Although the use of tolvaptan requires careful consideration and balancing of benefits and risks, current evidence suggests that tolvaptan is a promising new treatment option for patients with ADPKD.
