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

case reportWe report the history of a 67-year-old patient who was admitted to hospital because of rapidly progressive renal insufficiency. The renal biopsy revealed granulomatous interstitial nephritis. The diagnosis of systemic sarcoidosis was confirmed by typical findings of bronchoalveolar lavage and of transbronchial, liver and bone marrow biopsy. Indications for sarcoidosis-related nephrocalcinosis/nephrolithiasis or glomerulonephritis were absent. Simultaneously a monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance (MGUS) was diagnosed. While the patient having been uremic at the time of diagnosis, the administration of prednisolone effectively improved renal function.

conclusionsAs a rare manifestation of sarcoidosis granulomatous interstitial nephritis can cause rapidly progressive renal insufficiency, which can effectively be treated by steroids, if distinct interstitial fibrosis is absent.
