Eosinophilic tubulointerstitial nephritis on treatment with isotretinoin.
Article in European journal of pediatrics, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Drug-related acute tubulointerstitial nephritis is one of the most common causes of childhood acute renal failures which originate from kidneys. Sixteen-year old male patient with the history of isotretinoin use for the last 3 months was admitted with acute renal failure. Renal function parameters were measured as follows: blood urea nitrogen 21 mg/dL, serum creatinine 1.68 mg/dL, cystatin C 1.15 mg/L, and estimated glomerular filtration rate based on cystatin C 56.5 mL/min/1.73 m2. The patient whom pathological signs of renal biopsy sections revealed interstitial mononuclear cell and eosinophilic infiltration was diagnosed with acute tubulointerstitial nephritis.
conclusionIsotretinoin is a vitamin A-derived agent which is commonly used in the treatment of acne and may cause drug-related acute tubulointerstitial nephritis. What is Known: •Drug-related acute tubulointerstitial nephritis (ATIN) is one of the most common causes of childhood acute renal failures. What is New: •Isotretinoin may cause drug-related acute tubulointerstitial nephritis.
