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

Familial juvenile hyperuricaemic nephropathy (FJHN) is a diagnosis that is easily missed. It has taken a long time to clarify the pathophysiology and prevalence of this disease entity which has been shown to be genetically identical to medullary cystic kidney disease (MCKD) type II. The initial suspicion that uric acid was the noxious agent has been replaced by the recognition that a mutant uromodulin (UMOD) is the real culprit-although the exact mechanisms of pathogenicity remain uncertain. The mutation has been traced to the UMOD gene in chromosome 16. The disease is characterised by the classic triad of autosomal dominant inheritance, progressive renal failure beginning in the third to fifth decade of life and gout. Phenotypically similar but genotypically distinct entities have been described over the last 10 years, making a clinical diagnosis difficult. These include mutations in the renin, hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-β and mucin 1 genes. UMOD-associated kidney disease has been proposed as a logical diagnostic label to replace FJHN, but given all these other mutations, an over-arching diagnostic term of 'autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease' (ADTKD) has been recently adopted. Allopurinol has been suggested as a therapeutic agent, but unfortunately this was based on non-randomised uncontrolled trials with small patient numbers.
