Role of Cinacalcet in Treating Cardiac Dysfunction Secondary to Hyperparathyroidism: A Case Series.
Article in Indian journal of nephrology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). A strong correlation exists between disturbed calcium-phosphate metabolism and cardiac dysfunction. Studies with use of cinacalcet in CKD are few and limited to older children and adults and in improving growth and bone deformities. We present three children with CKD on CAPD with cardiac dysfunction with refractory hyperparathyroidism. Patients were initiated on lowest adult weight-adjusted dose of 0.2 mg/kg/day. Dose was titrated every 30 days to achieve decline in iPTH to a goal of 200- 300 pg/ml. Serum calcium, phosphorus and iPTH levels were checked monthly. Complications of therapy related to cinacalcet monitored. Monthly echocardiography done to monitor cardiac dysfunction. None of them experienced significant adverse effects of cinacalcet therapy.
