Successful treatment of refractory hypertension with bilateral nephrectomy in a patient with chronic kidney disease stage 3.
Article in Clinical kidney journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We present a case of life-threatening refractory hypertension (rHTN) in a patient with stage 3b chronic kidney disease that was unresponsive to open surgical renal denervation (RDN) but responded to bilateral nephrectomy (BLN). Both RDN and BLN reduce the increased sympathetic activation in rHTN. However, RDN has yet to show reductions in blood pressure adequate for the average patient with rHTN, and BLN has thus far been reserved for patients with preexisting end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). Our case suggests that there are patients with rHTN that warrant consideration of BLN prior to developing ESKD.
