Asymmetric and Symmetric Dimethylarginines as Renal Function Parameters in Paediatric Kidney Diseases: A Literature Review from 2003 to 2022.
Review in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA), inhibitors of nitric oxide synthase, play important roles in many processes in the body. Most data in the literature concern their importance in adult chronic kidney disease (CKD). According to them, SDMA well reflects the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and higher ADMA concentrations are associated with hypertension and higher mortality. In addition, both substances are recognised cardiovascular risk factors in CKD. The purpose of this review was to summarise the studies on dimethylarginines in renal diseases in children, about which we have much fewer data. The review focuses specifically on dimethylarginine's relation to routinely used renal function parameters. Finally, we analysed 21 of the 55 articles published between 2003 and 2022 on dimethylarginines in kidney diseases in children (from birth to 18 years of age), obtained by searching PubMed/MEDLINE (search terms: "dimethylarginine" and "kidney").
