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

Background: Genomic and ultrasound tests can provide diagnostic and prognostic information on autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), and can screen first-degree relatives in whom early diagnosis can be advantageous. We conducted a systematic mapping review on test accuracy and characteristics over time. Methods: Medline, Embase, and Cochrane were searched (August 2023) for studies in first Results: From 1029 non-duplicate titles retrieved, 51 genomic and 7 ultrasound studies were included. There were no genomic studies in first-degree relatives. Among studies in patients with clinical diagnoses, genomic sequencing methodologies were highly heterogeneous [next generation (short read ( Conclusions: Despite technological advances, sensitivity of genomic tests appeared static between 2000 and 2023. Possible explanations include clinical diagnostic criteria (and hence populations recruited) widening from
