Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura Complicated by Hepatitis C Virus-related Membranoproliferative Glomerulonephritis after Rituximab Therapy.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
We herein report the case of a 54-year-old Japanese man with hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN), which developed at the time of relapse of immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) after rituximab therapy. Antiviral therapy for HCV led to the improvement of both MPGN and ITP. Rituximab therapy may have contributed to the exacerbation of HCV infection and induced the development of HCV-related MPGN and the relapse of ITP. Our case suggested that HCV treatment should be prioritized over rituximab therapy for HCV-positive patients with ITP and that antiviral therapy for HCV may be effective for treating ITP itself.
