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

We report the case of a 51-year-old African woman with longstanding well-controlled HIV who developed relapsing systemic antineutrophil cytoplasm antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis and glomerulonephritis. She presented with an acute kidney injury and heavy proteinuria in the setting of a prolonged history of diffuse arthralgias and transient ocular symptoms. Antimyeloperoxidase (MPO) antibody titre was >100 IU/mL. Subsequent renal biopsy demonstrated a focal necrotising pauci-immune glomerulonephritis and a diagnosis of MPO-ANCA-associated microscopic polyangiitis was made. The patient was treated with tapering glucocorticoids and rituximab with resolution of her acute kidney injury and reduction in her proteinuria. Treatment was complicated by the development of steroid-induced diabetes and one mild clinical relapse, but was otherwise well tolerated without infectious complications or deterioration in her HIV disease.
