A Case Report of Paralysis and Respiratory Difficulty in a Patient With a Recent History of Complicated Pregnancy - An Uncommon Expression of Distal Renal Tubular Acidosis.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Renal tubular acidosis type 1 (RTA-1) is a disorder where kidneys are unable to acidify urine, which ultimately results in normal anion gap metabolic acidosis. Its initial presentations and subsequent clinical manifestations can vary depending on the underlying cause and severity of the disease. We report a case of a 26-year-old female with a recent history of complicated pregnancy. She presented to a tertiary care hospital with quadriplegia and shortness of breath and required ventilator support. The extensive workup revealed that the patient had RTA-1 in association with Sjögren's syndrome. There are only a few cases of RTA-1 reported where the diagnosis was made during the pregnancy. By reporting this case of RTA-1 with rare initial clinical presentation and a recent complicated pregnancy, we propose that further research studies should be carried out in this area to explore a possible statistically significant association between pregnancy (and its complications) and RTA-1 exacerbation.
