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

An 81-year-old man with hypertension and a history of smoking presented with renal enlargement and progressive renal dysfunction despite no family history of kidney disease. A renal biopsy revealed diffuse tubular, dilated, and atrophic distal tubules with cystic formation and thin irregularities in the tubular basement membrane. Although no known genetic abnormalities were detected, the patient was diagnosed with medullary cystic kidney disease (MCKD). In addition, idiopathic nodular glomerulosclerosis, which is characterized by significant mesangial expansion and accentuated glomerular nodularity and is associated with hypertension and cigarette smoking, was identified as a complication of MCKD. We herein report a rare case of sporadic MCKD with idiopathic nodular glomerulosclerosis.
