Is Losing Weight Worth Losing Your Kidney: Keto Diet Resulting in Renal Failure.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Keto diet is defined as a high-fat, adequate-protein, and low-carbohydrate nutrition which forces the body to burn fats and use an alternative metabolic fuel resource by stimulating endogenous ketone production. The standard range of ketones in ketosis is up to 3.00mmol/L, and anything beyond this level can result in serious medical conditions. This diet's most common and easily reversible consequences are constipation, low-grade acidosis, hypoglycemia, kidney stones, and increased lipid in the blood. We present a case of a 36-year-old female who presented with pre-renal azotemia after starting a keto diet regimen.
