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

The situation of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in chronic kidney disease patients not on dialysis (ND-CKD) is probably best characterised by the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral and Bone Disorder Update 2017 guideline 4.2.1 stating that the optimal parathyroid hormone levels are not known in these stages. Furthermore, new caution became recommended with regard to the routine use of active vitamin D analogues in early CKD stages and moderate SHPT phenotypes, due to their potential risks for hypercalcaemia and hyperphosphataemia aggravation. Nevertheless, there is still a substantial clinical need to prevent the development of parathyroid gland autonomy, with its associated consequences of bone and vascular damage, including fracture risks and cardiovascular events. Therefore we now attempt to review the current guideline-based and clinical practice management of SHPT in ND-CKD, including their strengths and weaknesses, favouring individualised approaches respecting calcium and phosphate homeostasis. We further comment on extended-release calcifediol (ERC) as a new differential therapeutic option now also available in Europe and on a potentially novel understanding of a required vitamin D saturation in more advanced CKD stages. There is no doubt, however, that knowledge gaps will remain unless powerful randomised controlled trials with hard and meaningful endpoints are performed.
