Salvage from hemodialysis via percutaneous transluminal renal artery stenting for a jeopardized solitary functioning kidney: A case report.
Article in Journal of cardiology cases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) causes resistant hypertension, progressively declining renal function, and cardiac destabilization syndromes, including heart failure. We report a patient who underwent successful percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty (PTRA) for anuretic acute kidney injury (AKI) due to ARAS. This patient, admitted to our hospital with congestive heart failure, developed anuretic AKI and started hemodialysis 3 days after admission. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance angiograms showed total occlusion of the proximal right renal artery, with atrophy of the right kidney and severe stenosis of the proximal left renal artery. These findings suggested that only the left kidney was functioning. We performed PTRA of the left renal artery in which the culprit lesion causing the AKI appeared to be located. Using intravascular ultrasound, severe calcification in the ostium of the left renal artery and a necrotic core with plaque rupture in the culprit lesion were observed. Kidney function recovered immediately after revascularization, which permitted successful withdrawal of hemodialysis. There is no clear consensus regarding the indication for PTRA in patients with ARAS; however, our experience suggests that PTRA may be beneficial for patients with a jeopardized solitary functioning kidney. <
