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

While the most common clinical feature of nephrotic syndrome is generalized edema, patients are at risk of developing other problems, such as bacterial infections, electrolyte abnormalities, and venous thromboses. Adults with membranous nephropathy appear to be at the greatest risk for developing thromboses, especially renal vein thrombosis. However, the same is not true for children with membranous nephropathy. A review of pediatric membranous nephropathy stated that renal vein thrombosis is unrecorded in childhood-onset membranous nephropathy. We present our experience in managing two children with idiopathic membranous nephropathy who developed venous thromboses. To our knowledge, this is the first report of pediatric patients with membranous nephropathy to develop a thromboembolic complication without evidence of predisposing factors or coagulation abnormalities. This report emphasizes the need for appropriate evaluation of patients with membranous nephropathy who develop signs and symptoms suggestive of arterial or venous occlusion in order to avoid missing this potentially life-threatening medical complication.
