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

Posterior urethral valves (PUV) constitute a significant urological cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in children. The condition is characterised by the unique pathophysiology of the evolution of bladder dysfunction after relief of obstruction, which contributes to CKD. Improvements in prenatal diagnosis followed by selective foetal intervention have not yet produced improvement in long-term renal outcomes, although better patient selection may alter this in the future. Proactive management with surveillance, pharmacotherapy, timed voiding, double voiding, and/or assisted bladder-emptying, is being increasingly offered to those with severe bladder dysfunction and has the potential of reducing the burden of renal disease. Clinicians are currently able to counsel regarding the prognosis using serum creatinine and other emerging markers. However, much of this work remains to be validated. Satisfactory graft survival rates are now reported with aggressive management of bladder dysfunction in children who are candidates for renal transplantation. Knowledge gaps exist in identifying early markers of renal injury, risk stratification, and in understanding patient and carer perspectives in PUV.
