Causes of renal oligohydramnios: impact on prenatal counseling and postnatal outcome.
Article in Pediatric nephrology (Berlin, Germany), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The presence of renal oligohydramnios (ROH) in a fetus has been associated in the past with a poor prognosis for survival, although recent studies have shown that survival has improved considerably due to the advances in neonatology and pediatric nephrology. In an article recently published in Pediatric Nephrology, evaluation of a large series by Mehler and colleagues confirms the improved prognosis, showing a survival rate of 32 of 38 (84%). In addition, only 12 of 35 (34%) neonates required renal replacement therapy. In five of these 12 children the dialysis could be terminated after the neonatal period. This study has important implications on the decision-making process and counseling of families. While 37% of families of the study opted for termination of pregnancies, palliative care was chosen by 8% of the families, representing an important option when a decision cannot be made rapidly by affected families. A multidisciplinary approach is not only necessary in the active treatment of neonates with a history of ROH but also in antenatal counseling. In this regard future efforts should establish consensus on an ethical framework for the decision-making process in ROH.
