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

introductionTolvaptan slowed estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline in subjects with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) in TEMPO 3:4 and REPRISE trials. Tolvaptan effects in subjects with eGFR 15 to 24 ml/min per 1.73 m

methodsOne data subset comprised subjects with OLE baseline eGFR 15 to 29 ml/min per 1.73 m

resultsMean annualized eGFR slopes (ml/min per 1.73 m

conclusionInitiating or maintaining tolvaptan therapy significantly delayed eGFR decline in subjects with baseline eGFR 15 to 24 and 25 to 29 ml/min per 1.73 m
