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

A 50-year-old Japanese woman with anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 antibody (anti-MDA5 antibody)-positive dermatomyositis presenting with rapidly progressive interstitial pneumonia was treated with corticosteroids and cyclosporine. She developed nephrotic syndrome during the treatment regimen with corticosteroids and cyclosporine. A kidney biopsy revealed a thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) glomerular lesion. Anti-MDA5 antibody-positive dermatomyositis is prone to severe interstitial lung disease (ILD) and is often exacerbated and refractory to treatment. Renal symptoms might be due to TMA of the kidney, and this may be a sign that more intensive treatment is needed. Patients sometimes develop acute kidney injury, which may be due to the TMA.
