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 71-year-old Japanese man with progressive kidney failure was referred to our hospital. Laboratory tests showed elevated IgG4 levels. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed soft tissue surrounding the left kidney and right atrophic kidney. A histopathological examination revealed inflammation and fibrosis with rich IgG4-positive cells in the thickened kidney capsule, but not in the kidney parenchyma. Poor enhancement in the left kidney on contrast-enhanced CT and wrinkling of glomerular capillaries in pathological tissues were also observed. These findings indicated IgG4-related perirenal lesions leading to low renal perfusion and kidney failure. The perirenal lesions and kidney failure were improved by corticosteroid therapy.
