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

IgA nephropathy is the most common primary glomerulonephritis and is a frequent cause for chronic kidney disease in children and young adults. Glomerular deposition of IgA also characterizes other renal disorders, including Henoch-Schoenlein purpura nephritis and immune-complex glomerulonephritis afflicting patients with liver disease due to chronic infection with the hepatitis C virus. Several treatment options are often considered, with the goal to prevent end-stage renal failure. Unfortunately, the diagnosis currently requires an invasive procedure, a renal biopsy. Because of the inherent risks, repetitive renal biopsy is frequently foregone as a means to monitor the clinical course or response to treatment. Recent advances in the analysis of the urinary proteome suggest that the excreted polypeptides include disease-specific patterns. We review recent studies of the various techniques for the identification and validation of such urinary biomarkers of IgA-associated glomerulonephritides. Currently, capillary electrophoresis coupled with mass spectrometry (MS) offers the greatest promise. To date, it seems more likely that disease-specific urinary polypeptide biomarkers are comprised of a panel of several distinct and well-defined peptides rather than a single molecule. Even most patients in clinical remission with normal clinical testing (dipstick urinalysis and quantitative proteinuria) were correctly classified by the pattern of polypeptides identified by capillary electrophoresis coupled with MS. With confirmation and refinement, such urinary testing may provide a tool for the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with IgA-associated renal diseases that is more sensitive than current standard clinical testing and far less risky than renal biopsy.
