Sex-specific Stone-forming Phenotype in Mice During Hypercalciuria/Urine Alkalinization.

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
Sex differences in kidney stone formation are well known. Females generally have slightly acidic blood and higher urine pH when compared with males, which makes them more vulnerable to calcium stone formation, yet the mechanism is still unclear. We aimed to examine the role of sex in stone formation during hypercalciuria and urine alkalinization through acetazolamide and calcium gluconate supplementation, respectively, for 4 weeks in wild-type (WT) and moderately hypercalciuric [TRPC3 knockout [KO](-/-)] male and female mice. Our goal was to develop calcium phosphate (CaP) and CaP+ calcium oxalate mixed stones in our animal model to understand the underlying sex-based mechanism of calcium nephrolithiasis. Our results from the analyses of mice urine, serum, and kidney tissues show that female mice (WT and KO) produce more urinary CaP crystals, higher [Ca
