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

A 17-year-old male presented thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) at 6 months of age with arterial hypertension, anemia, thrombocytopenia and kidney injury improving with plasma infusions. Fourteen years later, he was diagnosed with severe arterial hypertension, increase in serum creatinine and chronic TMA on kidney biopsy. Eculizumab was started and after 18 months of treatment, he persisted with hypertension, decline in renal function and proteinuria. Genetic analysis demonstrated mutation in diacylglycerol kinase epsilon (DGKe). Complement blockade was stopped. This case of late diagnosis of DGKe nephropathy highlights the importance of genetic testing in patients presenting TMA during the first year of life.
