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

backgroundAn increasing number of case reports indicate potential nephrotoxicity of 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), which shares similarities with the chemical structures of both phenacetin and acetylsalicylic acid.

aimIn a point prevalence study the occurrence of sensitive indices indicative of early kidney malfunction was assessed in outpatients with inflammatory bowel disease.

methodsRoutine indices of kidney function (creatinine clearance, urinary protein content, pH, electrolytes, and microscopy) were investigated in 223 patients with inflammatory bowel disease as well as sensitive markers of glomerular or tubular dysfunction (microproteinuria by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), urinary concentrations of N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase, alpha 1-microglobulin, gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), alkaline phosphatase (AP), and albumin). Histories of exposure to 5-ASA were assessed by questionnaire.

resultsPatients receiving high amounts of 5-ASA, both actual as well as on a lifetime basis, showed an increased prevalence of tubular proteinuria by SDS-PAGE. Raised values for urinary AP and GGT indicate proximal tubular epithelial cells as the source. All other kidney function tests were normal. Analysis of covariates indicated strong associations between disease activity and size of 5-ASA doses as well as alterations in kidney tubular function.

conclusionThe possibility exists that high doses of 5-ASA may be associated with proximal tubular proteinuria. This point prevalence study cannot dissect the possible impact of chronic inflammation from high dose 5-ASA treatment and further prospective studies are warranted.
