Chronic Graft-versus-host Disease-associated Membranous Nephropathy Following Bone Marrow Transplantation, Successfully Treated with Rituximab.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
A 67-year-old woman who had undergone bone marrow transplantation 2 years previously for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) developed complications of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). She thereafter also developed nephrotic syndrome, and membranous nephropathy (MN) was diagnosed by a renal biopsy. Although the causative antigens of the MN were not detected, immunofluorescence staining showed codominant deposition of immunoglobulins G2 and G3, a finding indicating secondary MN, thereby suggesting an association between MN and cGVHD. Rituximab treatment was initiated, and her nephrotic syndrome gradually improved without relapse of AML. Our present case suggests that rituximab is a safe and effective therapeutic option for cGVHD-associated MN.
