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

Recent advances in genomics have uncovered the molecular mechanisms involved in the broad spectrum of variation associated with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. Over 50 monogenic causes of steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome have been discovered; however, these genes are implicated in only a small proportion of cases. Using a combination of whole-exome sequencing and genome-wide linkage studies, a missense mutation in anillin (ANLN) has been identified as a cause of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, a pattern of glomerular injury associated with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. We report a case of 2-year-6-month-old male child, who presented with severe edema and oliguria for 6 weeks. He was found to be an early steroid non-responder, hence renal biopsy and genetic testing were ordered. These findings were in favour of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, a common cause of childhood steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. It is important to identify the causative agent to avoid unnecessary immunosuppressive therapy and its associated risks.
