Type I renal tubular acidosis caused by Sjögren's syndrome with hypokalemia as the first symptom: a case report.
Article in The Journal of international medical research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Sjögren's syndrome is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease characterized by exocrine gland involvement and marked lymphocytic infiltration. Numerous reports of patients with Sjögren's syndrome have described kidney damage, mainly involving distal tubule dysfunction, severe renal calcification, kidney stones, and rickets. We herein describe a patient with primary Sjögren's syndrome who developed type I renal tubular acidosis with hypokalemia as the first symptom. This case highlights the possibility that an underlying autoimmune disorder should be considered in a patient presenting with distal tubular acidosis or recurrent hypokalemic periodic paralysis because treatment of the primary disease improves the outcome.
