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

A 3-year-old boy presented with polyuria and polydipsia for 18 months, along with growth failure. He was born prematurely, at 34 weeks of gestation, with a low birth weight. On examination, the child was severely underweight and hypertensive. Clinical history and evaluation could not identify any secondary causes of hypertension. There was no significant family history. An endocrine workup was planned, considering hypokalemia and metabolic alkalosis. This demonstrated hyporeninemic hypoaldosteronism and raised the possibility of apparent mineralocorticoid excess (AME) and Liddle syndrome. Clinical exome sequence analysis of
