A case of lipoprotein glomerulopathy with a rare apolipoprotein E isoform combined with neurofibromatosis type I.
Article in CEN case reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Lipoprotein glomerulopathy (LPG) is a rare inherited disease characterized by histopathological features of lipoprotein thrombi in dilated glomerular capillaries and type III like hyperlipoproteinemia with heterozygous mutation of the apolipoprotein (apo) E gene. We herein present the case of a 50-year-old woman with LPG complicated by neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a case of LPG complicated by NF1. On the other hand, she had not only a heterozygous apoE-Sendai mutation, which is one of the most frequent apoE variants in LPG patients, but also a rare isoform of ApoE5 (Glu3Lys). Although apoE mutation has been recognized as having a principal role in the pathogenesis of LPG, some other factors are assumed to be present in the pathogenesis of LPG, because many asymptomatic carriers of apoE variants are recognized. The coexistence of NF1 or apoE5 (Glu3Lys) allele might play a role as an additional factor in the development of LPG.
