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 77-year-old woman developed nephrotic syndrome associated with type III hyperlipoproteinemia (III HLP) and increased apolipoprotein E (apo E). Apo E analysis disclosed E2/E3 heterozygosity in phenotypic and genotypic expressions, without any other mutations. A renal biopsy showed intraluminal and subendothelial thrombus-like deposits in the dilated capillary loops of the glomerulus that stained positive for lipids and apo E. Electron microscopy revealed tiny granular particles in the capillary lumina, as well as between the glomerular basement membrane and the endothelial cells. It was therefore concluded that III HLP associated with apo E2/E3 heterozygosity could induce lipoprotein glomerulopathy-like disease and nephrotic syndrome.
