Bortezomib for Reduction of Proteinuria in IgA Nephropathy.
Article in Kidney international reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01103778 (Velcade Therapy for Severe IgA Nephropathy), which is not on this map. Cited by 40 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.

Abstract
introductionIgA nephropathy is the most common glomerulonephritis in the world. We conducted a pilot trial (NCT01103778) to test the effect of bortezomib in patients with IgA nephropathy and significant proteinuria.
methodsWe treated 8 consecutive subjects from July 2011 until March 2016 with 4 doses of bortezomib. All subjects had biopsy-proven IgA nephropathy and proteinuria of greater than 1 g per day. They were given 4 doses of bortezomib i.v. at 1.3 mg/m
resultsAll 8 subjects received and tolerated 4 doses of bortezomib over a 2-week period during enrollment. The median baseline daily proteinuria was 2.46 g (interquartile range: 2.29-3.16 g). At 1-year follow-up, 3 subjects (38%) had achieved the primary endpoint. The 3 subjects who had complete remission had Oxford classification T scores of 0 before enrollment. Of the remaining 5 subjects, 1 was lost to follow-up within 1 month of enrollment and 4 (50%) did not have any response or had progression of disease.
conclusionProteasome inhibition by bortezomib may reduce significant proteinuria in select cases of IgA nephropathy. Subjects who responded to bortezomib had Oxford classification T score of 0 and normal renal function.
