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

Immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy is the commonest type of glomerular nephritis worldwide and is one of the leading causes of chronic kidney disease. Erythrocytosis is known to be associated with IgA nephropathy and other renal manifestations. We report a case of a 35-year-old male with grade 3 hypertensive retinopathy, erythrocytosis, and heavy proteinuria with an impaired renal function who was diagnosed as a case of erythrocytosis with IgA nephropathy and secondary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. An extensive evaluation and prompt interventions significantly improved the outcome in this patient.
