A Challenging Case of Inferior Vena Cava Compression in an Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease Patient. A Case Report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Adult polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a multi-system genetic disorder characterized by the development and progressive enlargement of fluid-filled cysts in both kidneys, along with other organs. As one of the main causes of kidney failure, ADPKD can progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), with over 50% of affected individuals progressing to ESRD by age 50. The symptoms in ADPKD are variable, with some patients experiencing nonspecific signs, while others present with symptoms related to the mass effect of enlarged kidneys on surrounding structures. This case report highlights an unusual presentation of ADPKD in a patient who developed symptoms of inferior vena cava (IVC) compression. Remarkably, these symptoms improved after bilateral nephrectomies, suggesting that bilateral nephrectomy would provide help in these situations.
