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

Purpose: To report two cases of catastrophic retinal vascular occlusion and crystalline retinopathy due to presumed oxalosis and hyperphosphatemia. Observations: We describe two unrelated patients with end-stage kidney failure (ESKD) treated with peritoneal dialysis that developed rapid bilateral vision loss due to severe retinal vascular occlusion. Multi-modal retinal imaging studies demonstrated crystalline deposits. Plasma phosphorus and oxalate levels were markedly elevated compared to persons with normal kidney function. One patient harbored a heterozygous variant of unknown significance in the Alanine--Glyoxylate Aminotransferase ( Conclusions and importance: This report serves to raise awareness of hyperphosphatemia and oxalosis in dialysis patients to alert providers so that they can act to decrease the potential risk of vision loss.
