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

5-Amino salicylic acid (5-ASA) is a known culprit for the development of tubulointerstitial nephritis. Together with impaired kidney function, tubulointerstitial nephritis can lead to specific tubular malfunctions including distal renal tubular acidosis. Distal renal tubular acidosis is an acid-base disorder in which acid secretion in the distal part of the renal tubular system is decreased. Patients with distal renal tubular acidosis are predisposed to recurrently form calcium phosphate kidney stones. This results from the inability to acidify the urine properly as well as from a decreased citrate concentration in the urine, which is another pathognomonic feature of distal renal tubular acidosis. We present the case of a man in his late 40s with Crohn's disease who developed tubulointerstitial nephritis associated with 5-ASA leading to the development of distal renal tubular acidosis and recurrent calcium phosphate nephrolithiasis. After steroid therapy and partial recovery of kidney function, we observed an increase of citraturia in response to treatment with dapagliflozin, potentially indicating beneficial effects of sodium/glucose cotransporter 2 inhibition on the recurrence of calcium phosphate stone disease in interstitial nephritis-induced distal tubular acidosis.
