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 case of polycythemia vera (PV) associated with immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) in a 57-year-old man is described. The patient had a mild enlargement of the kidneys and elevated serum creatinine level, whereas the glomerular filtration rate was normal. Pathological observation under a light microscope showed mild mesangial hyperplasia. The urinary protein level was found to be positively correlated with changes in blood cell counts. After controlling blood pressure, anti-platelet, hydroxyurea treatment, the patient's proteinuria decreased and renal function remained in the normal range. PV associated with renal disease is rare and generally considered to be associated with hypervolemia or high-viscosity-induced renal hyperperfusion and hyperfiltration. This is a rare case of PV associated with IgAN without a high filtration rate. A review of the clinical features of PV associated with renal disease from previous literature was also conducted. The histological results of the cases varied and included IgAN, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.
