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

backgroundThree types of primary hyperoxaluria (PH) are recognized. However, data on PH type 2 (PH2), caused by defects in the GRHPR gene, are limited.

methodsWe reviewed the medical records of patients < 18 years of age with genetically-proven PH2 from seven centres across India to identify the age of onset, patterns of clinical presentation, short-term outcomes and genetic profile, and to determine if genotype-phenotype correlation exists.

resultsWe report 20 patients (all with nephrolithiasis or nephrocalcinosis) diagnosed to have PH2 at a median (IQR) age of 21.5 (7, 60) months. Consanguinity and family history of kidney stones were elicited in nine (45%) and eight (40%) patients, respectively. The median (IQR) serum creatinine at PH2 diagnosis was 0.45 (0.29, 0.56) mg/dL with the corresponding estimated glomerular filtration rate being 83 (60, 96) mL/1.73 m

conclusionsPH2 should no longer be considered an innocuous disease, but rather a potentially aggressive disease with early age of presentation, and possible rapid progression to CKD stages 3-5 in childhood in some patients. A mutational hotspot (c.494 G > A variant) was identified in 60% of cases, but needs further exploration to decipher the genotype-phenotype correlation.
