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 rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) infected with simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV) while undergoing AIDS research, required a comprehensive physical examination when it presented with slight peripheral edema, hypoalbuminemia, and proteinuria. Many of the clinical findings were consistent with nephrotic syndrome, which is an indication of glomerular disease, but the possibility of concurrent disease needed to be considered because lentiviral induced immune deficiency disease manifests multiple clinical syndromes. The animal was euthanized when its condition deteriorated despite supportive care that included colloidal fluid therapy. Histopathology confirmed membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, the result of immune complex deposition most likely due to chronic SHIV infection. Clinical symptoms associated with this histopathology in SHIV-infected macaques have not previously been described. Here we offer suggestions for the medical management of this condition, which entails inhibition of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and diet modifications.
