Review in Pediatric nephrology (Berlin, Germany), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03692416 (The Effect of Some Drugs Used in Treatment of Vasculitis on the Complement System in Children Attending Assiut University Hospital.), which is not on this map. Cited by 13 papers.

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.

Abstract

The antineutrophil cytoplasm autoantibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides (AAV), although rare in childhood, can have devastating effects on affected organs, especially the kidney. In this review we present an update on the pathogenesis and treatment of ANCA vasculitis, with a particular emphasis on the role of the alternative pathway of complement. The rationale and evidence for the current treatment strategies are summarized. Targeting the activation of neutrophils by the anaphylatoxin C5a may serve as an additional therapeutic strategy, however the results of clinical studies are awaited.
