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.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) secondary to a monoclonal gammopathy is a rare glomerular disease and is defined as a monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance. The disease is characterized by glomerular monotypic immunoglobulin deposits and specific changes on light microscopy and electron microscopy. Immunochemistry is required to establish monoclonality, and electron microscopy helps to characterize the deposits ultrastructurally. Investigation for the underlying monoclonal protein should be done. We report a case of MPGN secondary to monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance that responded to treatment of the underlying clone with chemotherapy, resulting in improvement in renal function. Patients with MPGN and immunoglobulin deposition should be evaluated for a monoclonal protein to guide the management strategy.
