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

IgA vasculitis (IgAV, also known as Henoch-Schönlein purpura or HSP) is a vasculitis of small vessels involving multiple organs, particularly of the joints, gastrointestinal tract, skin, and kidneys. Growing laboratory evidence has shown that complement plays a key role in the pathogenesis of IgAV, although direct evidence of this association in patients is lacking. We report a child with IgAV associated with clinical features of hypertension, nephrotic range proteinuria, acute kidney injury, and low serum C3, with histopathologic findings on renal biopsy of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis with C3 and IgA co-dominance, and extensive complement derangements. This case report suggests that complement modifies the pathogenesis of IgAV, and further investigation into complement-targeted therapy in cases of refractory IgAV may be beneficial.
