Idiopathic Pubic Symphysis Diastasis in a Patient With Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease: A Rare Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Pubic symphysis diastasis (PSD) is characterized by widening of the pubic symphysis, most often associated with pregnancy, childbirth, or trauma, while idiopathic PSD is exceedingly rare. Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a multisystem disorder, but PSD has not been previously reported in this context. We present a 22-year-old female with ADPKD and progressive hip discomfort and clicking since childhood. Examination revealed mildly restricted, painful hip motion without instability. Radiography showed a pubic symphysis width of 25.5 mm, with no sacroiliac, traumatic, or degenerative findings. With no obstetric, traumatic, or inflammatory history, idiopathic PSD was diagnosed. The patient was managed conservatively with physical therapy, activity modification, and orthopedic follow-up. This is the first reported case of idiopathic PSD in an ADPKD patient, expanding the spectrum of musculoskeletal manifestations in ADPKD and highlighting the need to consider pelvic structural disorders in unexplained hip or pelvic pain.
