IgA Deficiency and Membranoproliferative Glomerulonephritis: A Case Report.
Article in International medical case reports journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundImmunoglobulin A deficiency (IgAD) is the most common form of primary immunodeficiency in western countries. It can be associated with the development of autoimmune diseases both in adults and in children even though the exact pathophysiology is not fully defined. CASE PRESENTATION: We report here a case of a young patient who developed nephrotic syndrome secondary to membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis associated with the incidental finding of IgAD. We began corticosteroid therapy and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, and we observed partial remission of the nephrotic syndrome after about nine months; nonetheless, in the following follow-up visits, a progressive decline of renal function was found.
conclusionOur case extends the spectrum of hitherto described glomerulonephritides associated with IgAD which were described until now.
