Accelerated recovery from nephrotic syndrome with acute renal failure by double filtration plasmapheresis in a patient with lupus podocytopathy.
Article in Clinical and experimental nephrology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
We describe a case of an adult female who presented with nephrotic syndrome. She was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus with serum antinuclear antibodies, leucopenia with lymphopenia, butterfly erythema, and nephrotic syndrome. Renal biopsy revealed normal glomeruli with diffuse effacement of the foot processes, consistent with lupus podocytopathy. Although human albumin replacement was performed initially, acute renal failure developed rapidly. Therefore, she was treated with double filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) in addition to oral steroid. After steroid therapy combined with DFPP, the renal function and proteinuria improved rapidly. Although the impact of DFPP on the treatment of lupus nephritis remains to be delineated, our observations suggest that DFPP in lupus podocytopathy played a pivotal role in facilitating the early recovery from renal injuries. Because of the rapid improvement of renal function without any change in body weight by DFPP, acute renal failure in the setting of lupus podocytopathy might contribute to an alternative pathophysiological factor for the diminished glomerular filtration rate, similar to that observed in the setting of idiopathic minimal change glomerulopathy.
