Renal disorders in Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathy Candidiasis Ectodermal dystrophy (APECED): a systematic review.
Synthesis in BMC pediatrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAutoimmune polyendocrinopathy candidiasis ectodermal dystrophy (APECED), also known as autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type I (APS-I) is an inborn error of immunity (IEI) with an immune dysregulation phenotype, mainly characterized by endocrine and non-endocrine manifestations including adrenal insufficiency, chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, and ectodermal dystrophy. Renal disorders seem to be a significant morbidity in APECED patients, requiring further investigations.
methodsThe literature search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases using relevant keywords, and included articles were systematically reviewed regarding the clinical and immunological features. APECED patients with at least one nephrological complication were included.
resultsNinety-three APECED patients from 30 studies were identified. More than half of the patients (38,52%) presented nephrocalcinosis. The second and third most prevalent renal complications were tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) (23,31%), and hypertension (13,18%), respectively. Other less frequent renal disorders including renal tubular acidosis (RTA) glomerulonephritis were also reported among patients. Additionally urinary tract infections (UTI), were also common among cases (15,20.5%).
conclusionsRenal complications in APECED represent a significant issue that should be monitored and considered in managing these patients to preserve renal function and improve patients' outcomes.
