Tuberculosis-associated IgA nephropathy.
Review in The Journal of international medical research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is the most frequent pathological diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB)-associated glomerulonephritis. Diagnosing TB-associated IgAN (TB-IgAN) is difficult because of its non-specific and insidious symptoms. An inaccurate diagnosis of TB-IgAN could result in the spread of TB and reduced renal function. Haematuria and proteinuria in conjunction with TB should be assessed because of the potential for diagnosis of IgAN. Renal biopsy is important in securing an accurate diagnosis prior to initiating treatment. Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA and assessment of early secreted antigenic target of 6 kDa in renal biopsy tissues may have great potential diagnostic value in patients with TB-IgAN. Anti-TB therapy can effectively alleviate TB and TB-IgAN.
