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

background and purposePatients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) develop cysts in the kidneys, liver, spleen, pancreas, prostate, and arachnoid spaces. In addition, spinal meningeal diverticula have been reported. To determine whether spinal meningeal diverticula are associated with ADPKD, we compared their prevalence in subjects with ADPKD with a control cohort without ADPKD. MATERIALS AND

methodsSubjects with ADPKD and age- and sex-matched controls without ADPKD undergoing abdominal MRI from the midthorax to the pelvis from 2003 to 2023 were retrospectively evaluated for spinal meningeal diverticula by 4 blinded observers. The prevalence of spinal meningeal diverticula in ADPKD was compared with that in control subjects, using

resultsIdentification of spinal meningeal diverticula in ADPKD (

conclusionsADPKD has a high prevalence of spinal meningeal diverticula, particularly in women.
