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

Introduction: Immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) plus dexamethasone are effective for plasma cell dyscrasias, but the treatment efficacy of IMiD in proliferative glomerulonephritis with monoclonal immunoglobulin deposits (PGNMID) has been rarely reported. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathologic data of 64 patients with PGNMID (steroid, IMiD, and bortezomib and dexamethasone/Rituximab [BD/RTX] groups) from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2020, at the National Clinical Research Center of Kidney Disease in Nanjing. The prognosis of patients receiving different treatment regimens were compared. Factors potentially affecting renal prognosis and renal response were evaluated. Results: Twenty-eight, 26 and 10 PGNMID patients were divided into IMiD group, steroid group and BD/RTX group respectively. The rate of serum M protein detection was significantly lower in the steroid group than in the other 2 groups. Renal remission ( Conclusion: Our results suggest that IMiDs plus dexamethasone is effective for achieving renal remission in PGNMID patients.
