Computed tomography evaluation of renal artery morphometry in adults. The impact of age and gender.
Article in Saudi medical journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivesTo determine the effect of age and gender on diameters and lengths of the renal arteries. Methods: This is a retrospective study. A total of 50 asymptomatic volunteers were selected randomly and scanned by multi-detector CT to assess the diameters and lengths of the renal arteries. The study conducted at King Abdulaziz Specialized Hospital (KAASH) and King Faisal Hospitals, Taif, Saudi Arabia between October 2017 and March 2018. The lengths and diameters of the main arteries were measured and compared to age and gender of the participants. Results: The mean length of right renal artery was significantly longer than the left one (4.47±.70 versus 3.714±.68 cm, p less than 0.001). Length of right and left renal arteries were significantly higher in males than females (p=0.02 and p=0.03). Diameters of both left and right renal arteries were higher in males than females (5.482±1.37 versus 5.288±1.09 cm, and 5.544±1.14 versus 5.188±1.05 cm). The diameters of renal arteries varied significantly with age, specifically in elders (p=0.001).
conclusionThe mean length and mean diameter were significantly different between females and males, and between left and right main renal arteries. Age and gender have a significant impact on the length and diameters of main renal arteries.
