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 a heterogeneous disease with variable clinical presentations ranging from asymptomatic hematuria to advanced renal failure. A young male diagnosed with IgA vasculitis (skin, joints, and gastrointestinal) one month ago and placed on oral steroids presented with acute diarrhea, hemolytic anemia, renal failure (non-dialysis requiring), altered sensorium, and thrombocytopenia. The stool was found to be positive for Shiga toxin. He improved with methylprednisolone pulse alone, and renal biopsy showed acute tubular injury.
