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

Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract are collectively one of the most commonly diagnosed antenatal conditions. Clinicians have several tools available to diagnose anomalies, including imaging, biomarkers, family history and genetic studies. In certain cases, antenatal interventions such as vesico-amniotic shunting may be considered to improve postnatal outcomes.Congenital kidney anomalies detected antenatally can vary in clinical significance from almost no impact postnatally to significant morbidity and perinatal mortality. Prognosis broadly depends on kidney size, structure and amount of amniotic fluid, alongside genetics and family history, and progression on subsequent scans. It is important to counsel parents appropriately using a parent-focused and personalised approach. The use of a multidisciplinary team should always be considered.
