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

Introduction: High height-adjusted total kidney volume (HtTKV) and low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) typically indicate high cystic burden by imaging and low kidney function, respectively, identifying high-risk patients for disease progression in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Here, we report the prevalence, clinical characteristics, and causes of mild ADPKD in patients using imaging and low eGFR, an ill-defined clinical scenario. Methods: We studied 473 patients with kidney function measurements, Results: Of 473 patients, 55 (12%) displayed a discordant phenotype. Among these patients, 13 (24%) had normal kidney functions by 24-h creatinine clearance (CrCl Conclusion: Mild ADPKD by imaging with low eGFR represents a significant clinical scenario with conflicting prognostic indicators, underscoring the need for delineating underlying causes and providing more appropriate management.
