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

The purpose of this review is to describe Streptococcus pneumoniae-associated hemolytic uremic syndrome (P-HUS) with emphasis on new insights into the pathophysiology and management over the past 10 years. Even though awareness of this clinico-pathological entity has increased, it likely remains under-recognized. Recent observations indicate that although neuraminidase activity and exposure of the T-antigen are necessary for development of P-HUS, they are not sufficient; activation of the alternate pathway of complement may also contribute. It is unclear, however, whether or not eculizumab and/or plasmapheresis are of value.
