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

backgroundCrossed fused ectopia (CFE) and horseshoe kidney (HSK) are the fusion anomalies of the kidney. Due to paucity of data on these disorders from India, we assessed the clinico-radiological profile and outcomes of these children. MATERIALS AND

methodsClinical records of radiologically confirmed cases of CFE and HSK, attending the Pediatric nephrology clinic at a tertiary care center were reviewed retrospectively.

resultsThirty one cases of fusion disorders of the kidney were studied (16 CFE, 15 HSK). The median age at diagnosis was 84 (37-123.5) months. Non-specific abdominal pain was the most common presenting complaint (42%). There was a significant difference between mean estimated GFR (97.23 ± 31.76 ml/min/1.73m

conclusionsMost children with fusion anomalies of kidney are symptomatic at presentation and further treatment is guided by the presence of associated urological anomalies. These children have an overall good prognosis but close monitoring of renal functions is essential.
