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

Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a chronic, idiopathic large vessel vasculitis mainly affecting the aorta and its major branches. It is one of the common causes of reno-vascular hypertension in Indian children. We report a ten-year-old boy who presented with hypertensive encephalopathy, proteinuria, and haematuria without any renal dysfunction. He was initially diagnosed to be a case of acute post streptococcal glomerulonephritis, but detailed clinical examination and haemato-radiological investigations revealed Takayasu arteritis, type V (P+). He had unilateral severe renal artery stenosis along with a small kidney and an aberrant renal artery on left side. He is found to have resistant hypertension, unresponsive to multiple anti-hypertensive drugs, and had a fatal outcome. This case illustrates renal involvement in TA and the significance of four-limb blood pressure measurement in any non-obese child with hypertension. Furthermore, the possible role of aberrant renal artery in the pathogenesis of resistant hypertension is discussed.
