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

purpose of reviewSex-dependent differences are evident in most organs and contribute to variability in physiological function and disease susceptibility, which can consequently affect therapeutic responses. The kidney is no exception to this finding and recent data suggest that sexual dimorphism exists in the regulation of acid-base homeostasis. RECENT

findingsWhile proteins involved in the renal regulation of acid-base homeostasis have been characterized over several decades, researchers have only recently begun investigating how biological sex affects these processes. Although males and females handle acid-base challenges similarly in many respects, there are critical, sex-specific differences in how several key kidney proteins respond to these challenges. This review highlights those distinct differences, focusing specifically on proteins including: NHE3, NBC1, NKCC2, pT58 NCC, Rhbg, Rhcg, H + -ATPase, and Na + /K + -ATPase. SUMMARY: Acid-base imbalances are among the most common and critical challenges in clinical medicine. Recent data reveal that female mice defend against systemic acid-base disruptions far more effectively than males, a resilience driven by distinct, sex-specific transport adaptations along the nephron. These findings underscore a critical gap in current care and the need for sex-specific therapeutic strategies in the clinical management of human acidosis and alkalosis.
