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
introductionIn 2018, a renal risk score of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated glomerulonephritis (AAGN) based on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), normal glomeruli, and tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis (TA/IF) was proposed to predict renal outcomes. We aimed to evaluate this renal risk score in a myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA predominant population in Northeast China.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathologic data of 65 patients biopsy-proven from a Chinese medical center. Each patient was assessed by eGFR, normal glomeruli, and TA/IF, and the renal outcome was evaluated using the renal risk score.
resultsIn our study, 95.4% of patients were ANCA positive (78.5% MPO-ANCA positive and 16.9% proteinase 3-ANCA positive). The average follow-up period was 14.3 months. Thirty-four patients (52.3%) reached end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Based on the renal risk score, 8 (12.3%), 31 (47.7%), and 26 (40%) patients were divided into the low-risk, medium-risk, and high-risk groups, respectively. Kaplan-Meier survival curves revealed the high-risk group had worse renal outcomes than the low-risk group (p<0.01) and the medium-risk group (p<0.01), but the renal outcome did not differ between the low-risk and medium-risk groups (p>0.017). Similar results were obtained by the competitive survival analysis. The AUC for 3-year overall ESRD predictions was 0.845. In the regression analysis, the renal risk score was a favorable predictor for the development of ESRD (HR 3.13, 95%CI 1.58-6.19, p=0.001).
conclusionThe renal risk score is a preferred index that can predict ESRD in Chinese AAGN patients, especially in the high-risk group with worse renal outcomes. Key Points • The eGFR and percentage of normal glomeruli were valuable predictors of renal outcome, whereas TA/IF was not. • We confirmed the renal risk score is a preferred index that can predict ESRD in Chinese AAGN patients. • Based on the renal risk score, the high-risk group had worse renal outcomes than the low-risk group and the medium-risk group.
