Tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis (TINU) syndrome and recent
Article in BMJ case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 9-year-old girl presented to hospital with a 6-week history of non-specific constitutional symptoms and weight loss. She initially underwent extensive medical investigation without diagnosis being achieved. Although raised inflammatory markers and impaired renal function were noted during her initial admission to hospital, it was her subsequent presentation 2 weeks later with sudden-onset bilateral anterior uveitis that prompted a renal biopsy that indicated acute tubulointerstitial nephritis. A diagnosis of tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis (TINU) syndrome was made and systemic glucocorticoid treatment initiated to prevent visual loss and preserve renal function. She has subsequently been reviewed in multidisciplinary outpatient clinics and treated with a tapering regimen of immunosuppressive therapy. Her treatment has been complicated by the side effects of glucocorticoids and by persistent relapses in ocular disease and abnormalities on urinalysis. Recent clinical investigations indicate that her uveitis is controlled and that renal function remains well preserved.
