Distal Renal Tubular Acidosis in Sjögren's Syndrome: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 an autoimmune lymphocytic infiltrative disease that leads to chronic inflammatory and degradatory changes to exocrine glands and extra-glandular systemic organs. It rarely affects children and adolescents. In cases where adolescents are affected, a paucity of sicca symptoms, xerostomia, and xerophthalmia often leads to a missed diagnosis. Consequently, the first presenting sign of Sjögren's syndrome in adolescents may be heterogeneous, with varying clinical symptoms related to parotitis or systemic organ involvement. In this case report, we discuss a 19-year-old girl with distal renal tubular acidosis (RTA), who had experienced severe hypokalemic episodes since the age of 14 years; the patient was eventually diagnosed with Sjögren's syndrome. She was managed and maintained on potassium and alkali repletion therapy.
