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

backgroundThere is controversy over whether IgA nephropathy (IgAN) and Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN) are the same diseases. This study focuses on the clinicopathological comparison between HSPN and IgAN in children.

methodsChildren with IgAN and HSPN who had a diagnostic renal biopsy were enrolled. This study collected the clinical data of patients at biopsy, re-evaluated the pathological lesions of patients according to the Oxford Classification (MEST-C), and made a retrospective comparison between IgAN and HSPN on different stratifications of the course (Tc) and proteinuria.

resultsA total of 142 children with IgAN and 57 children with HSPN were enrolled. Various stratification showed the same result, which suggested that IgAN showed more mesangial proliferation (M). HSPN showed more segmental glomerulosclerosis in the Tc > 12 m group than IgAN (S 60.0% vs. 9.10%, P = 0.008). In the non-nephrotic-range and nephrotic-range proteinuria group, there were no significant differences in MEST-C scores between IgAN and HSPN.

conclusionM is more common in IgAN. HSPN had more S than IgAN over the course of more than 12 months. These results indicate the differences in the pathogenesis in IgAN and HSPN. We propose early biopsy and active treatment of HSPN within 12 months to delay the development of chronic lesions.
