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

backgroundWhether the Oxford classification of immunoglobulin A nephropathy can be utilized to predict the adverse renal outcome of Henoch-Schonlein purpura nephritis (HSPN) has been long-debated. We, therefore, performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the prognostic value of Oxford classification lesions in HSPN.

methodsWe systematically searched Medline, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library for articles published from January 1970 to August 2020. Cohort and case-control studies investigating the correlation between the Oxford classification and renal outcome were included, the quality of which was assessed by the Newcastle-Ottawa scale criteria. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated with a random-effects model or a fixed-effects model depending on the heterogeneity.

resultsA total of 485 papers were reviewed and eventually 9 comparisons were included, providing data of 1688 patients with HSPN. ORs for adverse renal events were 2.83 (95% CI 1.84-4.35; P < 0.001), 1.96 (95% CI 1.28-2.98; P < 0.05), and 5.45 (95% CI, 3.15-9.45; P < 0.001) for patients with lesions of endocapillary hypercellularity (E), segmental sclerosis (S), and tubular atrophy /interstitial fibrosis (T), respectively, without significant heterogeneity (E: I

conclusionsOxford classification, especially for E, S, T, and C, might be recommended for patients with HSPN, regardless of children and adults.
