In one paragraph

Review in Kidney international reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) is diagnosed by kidney biopsy, with immunofluorescence showing isolated or dominant C3 staining, indicating hyperactivity of the alternative complement pathway as the key driver of glomerular injury. Therefore, the lesion is defined by its complement-mediated pathogenesis as much as its histological pattern. As a bevy of complement-targeting agents are moving through development and clinical trials, we review the evolution in treatment paradigms for C3G. Here we survey the limited efficacy of noncomplement targeting therapy before focusing on the work being done on targeting various components of the complement cascade in aiming to provide disease-specific therapy.
