A Regional Evaluation of Survival of Infants with End-Stage Renal Disease.
Article in Neonatology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundInformation regarding morbidity and mortality of infants born with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring dialysis early in life is critical to optimize patient care and better counsel families.
objectiveWe evaluated outcomes of infants born regionally with ESRD, and those within our broader catchment area referred for dialysis. STUDY
designWe screened deaths at 5 regional referral hospitals, identifying infants with ESRD who did not survive to transfer for dialysis. We also screened all infants <8 weeks old seen at our institution over a 7-year period with ESRD referred for dialysis. We evaluated factors associated with survival to dialysis and transplant.
resultsWe identified 14 infants from regional hospitals who died prior to transfer and 12 infants at our institution who were dialyzed. Because of the large burden of lethal comorbidities in our regional referral centers, overall survival was low, with 73% dying at birth hospitals. Amongst dialyzed infants, 42% survived to transplant.
conclusionThis study is unusual in reporting survival of infants with ESRD including those not referred for dialysis, which yields an expectedly lower survival rate than reported by dialysis registries.
