Cystic Fibrosis Presenting as Pseudo-Bartter Syndrome: An Important Diagnosis that is Missed!
Review in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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
Cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disorder, occurs due to mutations in CFTR gene resulting in impaired cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) chloride channel function in various epithelia. In addition to the well-known pulmonary and pancreatic morbidities, CF is characterized by electrolyte and acid-base abnormalities- hypochloremia, hyponatremia, hypokalemia and metabolic alkalosis. These are collectively known as Pseudo-Bartter syndrome, as similar abnormalities are seen in Bartter syndrome- an inherited tubulopathy affecting thick ascending limb of loop of Henle. There may be a significant clinical overlap between the Classic Bartter syndrome, Gitelman syndrome and CF presenting as Pseudo-Bartter syndrome, especially in early childhood. This review focuses on Pseudo-Bartter syndrome in CF, its pathogenesis and differentiation from Bartter/Gitelman syndrome. Other causes of metabolic abnormalities resembling Bartter syndrome are also highlighted.
