Collapsing FSGS with Concurrent Class 2 and 3 Lupus Nephritis: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in Case reports in nephrology and dialysis. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Lupus nephritis (LN) and the collapsing variant of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (cFSGS) are separate histologic diagnoses that are generally thought to have separate etiologies. We describe the presentation of a 20-year-old African American female with advanced renal failure (creatinine 7.16 mg/dL), nephrotic-range proteinuria, and a 30-pound weight loss. Renal biopsy demonstrated class 2 and 3 LN as well as cFSGS. A review of the current literature demonstrates that the dual diagnosis of LN and cFSGS may not be as rare as previously understood. Whether the presence of one of these pathophysiologic processes predisposes a patient to the development of the other, or whether genetic variation increases the risk for development of both conditions, remains unclear. Currently there is no standard therapy to manage these patients, and overall renal prognosis is poor.
