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

backgroundAutosomal-recessive renal tubular dysgenesis (AR-RTD) is a rare genetic disorder caused by defects in the renin-angiotensin system that manifests as fetal anuria leading to oligohydramnios and Potter sequence. Although the most common outcome is neonatal death from renal failure, pulmonary hypoplasia, and/or refractory arterial hypotension; several cases have been reported that describe survival past the neonatal period.

methodsHerein, we report the first family with biallelic ACE variants and more than one affected child surviving past the neonatal period, as well as provide a review of the previously reported 18 cases with better outcomes.

resultsWhile both siblings with identical compound heterozygous ACE variants have received different treatments, neither required renal replacement therapy. We show that both vasopressin and fludrocortisone in the neonatal period may provide survival advantages, though outcomes may also be dependent on the type of gene variant, as well as other factors.

conclusionWhile AR-RTD is most often a lethal disease in the neonatal period, it is not universally so. A better understanding of the factors affecting survival will help to guide prognostication and medical decision-making.
