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

The effect of enalapril on urinary protein excretion and renal function was studied in six paediatric patients with various renal diseases causing nephroticrange proteinuria. In three younger children (aged 7-9 years) with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome, enalapril at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg per day given for 24 months yielded a temporary reduction of proteinuria in one child, a moderate and steady decrease in another and a complete disappearance of proteinuria in the third. Three adolescents, aged 17 years, took enalapril for 24 months at a dose of 20 mg/day. We observed no effect on proteiuria in one patient with Alport syndrome, a complete disappearance of urinary protein in one patient with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis and a moderate decrease in the third patient who had idiopathic steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. Enalapril therapy resulted in an important reduction of proteinuria in two patients and a moderate decrease in three others. However this therapy was accompanied by a fall in glomerular filtration in all subjects, which was very marked in two patients. This fall in glomerular filtration may, however, simply reflect the natural course of the disease.
