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

Most cases of membranous nephropathy (MGN) present with global and diffuse distribution of subepithelial deposits. However, segmental MGN, in which there is focal or diffuse segmental subepithelial deposits, are occasionally encountered. The clinical and pathologic significance of segmental MGN is not well understood and thought to be more likely due to either early or resolving phase of the global form of MGN. Several case reports and literature available suggest that it may be a manifestation of secondary causes based on pathologic features such as presence of C1q and mesangial deposits, extra-glomerular deposits involving tubular basement membranes, absence of PLA2R and THSD7A, IgG1 and IgG3 subclass dominance, and the presence of other co-existing renal disease. Other reports, however, suggest that some of these cases may be a variant of the primary form of MGN. In this review, we integrate what is known about segmental MGN in order to better direct interpretation of renal biopsies in which it is identified.
