Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis in a patient with multiple sclerosis treated with Teriflunomide and Ocrelizumab.
Article in Journal of nephrology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
We describe the case of a 24-year-old male patient with multiple sclerosis (MS) who was treated with Teriflunomide for eight months. However, due to MS progression, treatment was switched to Ocrelizumab. After 15 months of therapy with Ocrelizumab the patient developed edema and nephrotic-range albuminuria. Kidney biopsy showed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and Ocrelizumab treatment was stopped. Teriflunomide is less likely to have caused FSGS due to a three week wash-out period and a timespan of 15 months between the last Teriflunomide dose and development of albuminuria. Treatment with Ocrelizumab has been associated with organ-specific inflammation in MS-patients, thus an association between the development of FSGS and Ocrelizumab therapy is possible, and this case suggests considering this potential association.
