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 23 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) measurement is a key tool for determining the degree of chronic kidney disease. The assessment of GFR is even more challenging in children than in adults with more variables in the equation than race and sex. Monitoring the progress of the kidney disease can therefore be difficult as in the initial stages of a decline in kidney function, there are no clinical signs. Due to children's growth and development, changes in muscle mass and growth impair GFR estimation based solely on serum creatinine values. More invasive methods of GFR measurement are more reliable, but techniques using ionising agents, requiring large volume blood samples or timed voiding, have limited application in children. This paper reviews the methods of measuring and determining glomerular filtration rate and kidney function in children.
