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

Recent investigations have described the use of urinary matrix remodeling-associated protein 5 (MXRA5) as a novel biomarker of kidney impairment in the setting of chronic kidney disease. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the possible clinical application of urinary MXRA5 as a useful non-invasive marker in the urine from the affected renal pelvis and bladder of children with ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). We conducted a prospective cohort study of patients aged <12 months with prenatally diagnosed unilateral UPJO who underwent dismembered pyeloplasty in 2018 or 2019, and a sex- and age-matched control group of healthy children. Blood urea nitrogen and creatinine levels were normal in all the patients. The whole urine and urinary exosomal concentrations of MXRA5 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The correlations between bladder/renal pelvic MXRA5 levels and differential renal function (DRF) in the affected kidney were also determined. A total of 35 UPJO patients and 12 controls were enrolled in the study. There was no significant difference in whole-urine MXRA5 level between the controls and UPJO patients. However, the exosomal MXRA5 level was significantly lower in the controls than in patients with UPJO (
