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

Collagenofibrotic glomerulopathy or LMX1B-associated nephropathy is a rare disease in which type III collagen accumulates in the glomeruli. We herein report a 64-year-old Japanese woman with an elevated serum creatinine level and persistent proteinuria for 7 years. An electron microscopic study using tannic acid showed curved and frayed collagen fibers within mesangial and subendothelial regions compatible with type III collagen depositions. The distribution of type IV collagen α1-6 chains was normal. Since no pathogenic mutations were identified in the LMX1B gene, she was diagnosed with collagenofibrotic glomerulopathy and treated with angiotensin II receptor blocker and calcium antagonist to control her blood pressure.
