Approach to Renal Tubular Acidosis - A Review.
Review in Indian journal of endocrinology and metabolism. 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
Acid-base homeostasis is maintained by renal and respiratory systems. The inability of the renal tubules to excrete acids or retain bicarbonate in adequate amounts leads to renal tubular acidosis (RTA). These disorders are characterised by the presence of normal anion gap metabolic acidosis with hyperchloremia. Both distal RTA (type 1) and proximal RTA (type 2) can occur due to a primary/inherited defect in the renal tubule or may arise due to some secondary/acquired causes. Urinary acidification defect defines type 1 RTA, while type 2 RTA is characterised by defective bicarbonate handling in the proximal tubule. Type 3 RTA includes features of both type 1 and type 2 RTA, whereas type 4 RTA is characterised by the presence of hyperkalaemia with normal anion gap metabolic acidosis. In this review article, we describe the various types of RTA and its pathophysiology along with a systematic and practical approach to a suspected case of RTA and its management.
