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

A 35-year-old female renal transplant recipient was referred to the metabolic bone clinic because of a 15 cm loss of height. She was noted to have thoracic kyphosis and vertebral X-ray confirmed a wedge fracture of the eighth thoracic vertebra. She was managed accordingly but on subsequent follow-up mentioned in passing that her gynaecologist had been unable to obtain a cervical smear for routine screening. This led to further questioning, and the patient reported intermittent urinary stress incontinence, feelings of vaginal fullness and severe dyspareunia. It became apparent that these symptoms had been ongoing for 4 years, but the patient had not brought them to the attention of a healthcare practitioner due to feelings of embarrassment and her religious beliefs. These complaints prompted radiological investigation, which revealed extensive bony pelvic deformity, thought to be an extreme manifestation of chronic kidney disease mineral and bone disorder.
