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.

Abstract

objectivesChildren with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have an increased risk of developing kidney disorders, which may cause significant kidney function impairment (SKI) or lead to chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this study we aimed to provide insights in causes and diagnoses of SKI cases and to provide recommendations for pediatric gastroenterologists for children with IBD and SKI.

methodsCases of SKI in children with IBD (<19 years) were collected from the international, prospective PIBD-SETQuality Safety Registry. A monthly survey was sent to participating pediatric gastroenterologists to report cases of SKI (defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min/1.73m

resultsBetween November 1, 2016 and December 31, 2023, 42 cases of SKI were eligible for analysis. Tubulo-interstitial nephritis (TIN) was the most common diagnosis (n = 15). Sixteen (38%) cases were confirmed with renal biopsy (10 cases of TIN). Twelve patients developed CKD. IBD medication was the most frequently reported cause (n = 15), however, there was low concordance between panelists about the most likely etiology (Fleiss' kappa 0.143 and 0.102).

conclusionsThis is the first prospective study to report cases of SKI in children with IBD. SKI may lead to CKD. Confirming the etiology of the SKI proved to be very challenging. The study provides recommendations for screening and follow-up of SKI in children with IBD.
