Podocytic infolding glomerulopathy: two new cases with connective tissue disease and literature review.

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
Podocytic infolding glomerulopathy (PIG) is a newly proposed disease entity, and only 29 cases have been reported worldwide so far, characterized by microspheres or microtubular structures or both associated with podocytic infolding into the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) on electron microscopy. We present two new cases of PIG with connective tissue disease (CTD), one with primary Sjögren's syndrome and the other with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and make a systemic review of the literature. In the entire 31 patients of PIG, 24 (77.42%) were women and seven (22.58%) were men, with an average age of 41.2 ± 15.2 (ranging from 14 to 79) years old. Almost two-thirds of patients (67.74%) were diagnosed with CTD, in which 76.19% were SLE. All patients presented with proteinuria and six (19.35%) patients were accompanied with hematuria. Serum creatinine was elevated in six (19.35%) patients. Pathological findings of all patients were consistent with PIG characteristics, and four patients with repeated renal biopsies further provided profound insights.
