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 61-year-old woman with a 10-year history of type 1 diabetes mellitus was referred to our nephrology department due to rapid kidney function deterioration. Despite good blood glucose control, her serum creatinine (Cr) concentration rose from 0.77 mg/dL to 2.40 mg/dL over one year. She had microscopic hematuria for several years, and an increase in urinary protein was observed over the past year. One month before the onset of kidney function exacerbation, she received the fourth vaccination against SARS-CoV-2. At referral, her urinary examination showed proteinuria of 4.73 g/g Cr and microscopic hematuria. MPO-ANCA, PR3-ANCA, and anti-basal membrane antibodies were negative. A kidney biopsy revealed IgA nephropathy demonstrating focal mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis with cellular crescents (M0E1S1T0-C1). The patient underwent six courses of intravenous cyclophosphamide administration in addition to steroid pulse therapy. One year after starting the treatment, her serum Cr improved to approximately 2 mg/dL, and urinary protein decreased to 0.6 g/g Cr.
