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

IgG4-related disease has been recently described. This disease occurs in various anatomic locations including pancreas, biliary tract, liver, retroperitoneum, kidney, breast, lung, thyroid gland, prostate, salivary gland, lacrimal gland, and lymph node. In this article, we report the first case of IgG4-related disease arising in the renal pelvis. A 49-year-old Japanese woman was found to show left hydronephrosis by a medical checkup. Histological examination of the renal pelvic tumor showed IgG4-related disease. Her postoperative serum IgG4 was elevated, and this was compatible with IgG4-related disease. Systemic examination showed swelling of major and minor salivary glands and the lacrimal glands, and biopsy of the minor salivary gland revealed the finding of IgG4-related disease. Finally, pathologists and clinicians should be aware of the possibility that the renal pelvis may be involved in IgG4-related systemic disease.
