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

Renal tubular acidosis is a well-known consequence of primary Sjogren's syndrome (pSS), but a rare manifestation similar to acute pancreatitis in pSS. Here, we discuss the case of a woman in her 50s, who presented to a tertiary care hospital with recurrent episodes of sudden-onset weakness in all four limbs, recurrent vomiting and epigastric pain. She had non-anion gap metabolic acidosis with hypokalaemia and was diagnosed with pSS with hypokalaemic periodic paralysis. She was also diagnosed with acute pancreatitis based on elevated amylase and lipase levels and CT findings. The article highlights the diverse spectrum of clinical manifestations of pSS, including renal and pancreatic involvements, which can be rare consequences of the disease.
