[Rapid progressive glomerulonephritis].
Review in Der Internist, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The rapid progressive glomerulonephritis is an emergency case. Renal function is rapidly lost within weeks or a few months (rarely within days) due to necrotizing extracapillary proliferative crescentic glomerulonephritis. Early diagnosis and treatment improve prognosis, as the best prognostic marker is creatinine when treatment is initiated. Three classes can be distinguished by immunofluorescence in histology. Firstly, there are no or only few immunoglobulins found (anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody [ANCA]-associated vasculitis). Secondly, there is linear immunofluorescence due to antibodies against the glomerular basement membrane (anti-glomerular basement membrane [GBM] disease or Goodpasture syndrome); and thirdly, there is a granular pattern of immunoglobulin deposition (for example systemic lupus erythematosus [SLE], Schoenlein-Henoch purpura or cryoglobulinaemia). The immunosuppressive repertoire has improved (such as induction therapy in ANCA-associated vasculitis with lower total steroid dose, cyclophosphamide pulses or rituximab). New treatment approaches are on their way and the prognosis regarding life expectancy and renal function has improved. There are still challenging questions to answer like treatment duration and markers of recurrence.
