Recent Developments in the Treatment of Pediatric Distal Renal Tubular Acidosis.
Review in Paediatric drugs, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is characterized by a primary defect in proton secretion by α-intercalated cells of the collecting duct, leading to impaired urine acidification and resulting in metabolic acidosis, hypokalemia, and hypercalciuria. Inherited forms of dRTA are currently associated with variants in five genes (SLC4A1, ATP6V1B1, ATP6V0A4, FOXI1, and WDR72), each being associated with specific extra-renal manifestations. Acquired forms can result from autoimmune diseases or drug side effects. Classical complications include nephrolithiasis, nephrocalcinosis, reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR), bone demineralization, and growth failure. Treatment focuses on correcting the acid-base imbalance through alkali supplementation (potassium, sodium, or magnesium bicarbonate or citrate) to reduce renal disease progression and promote normal growth and mineralization. Traditional treatments (alkali and potassium supplementation) often suffer from poor adherence due to frequent day and night administrations, gastrointestinal discomfort, and unpleasant taste. A novel investigational drug, ADV7103, which contains potassium citrate and potassium bicarbonate in an extended-release formulation, has recently been approved by the European Medicine Agency (EMA) for dRTA. Recent studies support its use as a first-line treatment, given its efficacy and safety profile.
