Animal models of monoclonal immunoglobulin-related renal diseases.
Review in Nature reviews. Nephrology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
The renal deposition of monoclonal immunoglobulins can cause severe renal complications in patients with B cell and plasma cell lymphoproliferative disorders. The overproduction of a structurally unique immunoglobulin can contribute to the abnormal propensity of monoclonal immunoglobulins to aggregate and deposit in specific organs. A wide range of renal diseases can occur in multiple myeloma or monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance, including tubular and glomerular disorders with organized or unorganized immunoglobulin deposits. The development of reliable experimental models is challenging owing to the inherent variability of immunoglobulins and the heterogeneity of the pathologies they produce. However, although imperfect, animal models are invaluable tools to understand the molecular pathogenesis of these diseases, and advances in creating genetically modified animals might provide novel approaches to evaluate innovative therapeutic interventions. We discuss the strategies employed to reproduce human monoclonal immunoglobulin-induced kidney lesions in animal models, and we highlight their advantages and shortcomings. We also discuss how these models have affected the management of these deposition diseases and might do so in the future. Finally, we discuss hypotheses that explain some limitations of the various models, and how these models might improve our understanding of other nephropathies without immunoglobulin involvement that have similar pathogenic mechanisms.
