Mycophenolate Mofetil for Severe IgA Vasculitis Nephropathy in Children: An Observational Study.
Article in Kidney medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Rationale & Objective: Individuals with IgA vasculitis nephritis (IGAVN) may develop rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis and/or nephrotic-range proteinuria, which are associated with worse prognosis. We report our experience of treatment of children with IGAVN with nephrotic-range proteinuria. Study Design: Case series. Setting & Participants: We retrospectively analyzed all children who presented with IGAVN, cutaneous purpura, and nephrotic-range proteinuria from January 1, 2000 until December 31, 2018. Outcome: We evaluated time required to achieve remission of proteinuria, resolution of hematuria, and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) at 12 months and last follow-up. Results: Twelve patients, 8 boys and 4 girls, mean age 7.5 years (range 4-15) were included in the study. Mean urinary protein to creatinine ratio (UPC) was 12.5 ± 8.7 mg/mg and GFR 90.7 ± 19.1 mL/min/1.73 m Limitations: Retrospective study, single-center experience, no standard immunosuppressive protocol, lack of control group. Conclusions: Remission can be achieved in patients with IGAVN and nephrotic-range proteinuria using mycophenolate mofetil-based immunosuppression. Magnitude of proteinuria is a key laboratory finding that correlates with time to achieve remission. Prolonged follow-up of patients with severe IGAVN is warranted.
