A Life-Threating Postpartum Atypical Hemolytic-Uremic Syndrome with Multiorgan Involvement.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. 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
Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome is a very rare condition that can be triggered in predisposed patients. It can remain undiagnosed and can result in a life-threatening event or permanent renal failure. We report a case of a 36-year-old pregnant woman who developed atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome postpartum. She underwent an emergency caesarean section due to abruptio placenta, and she developed biochemical alterations suggestive of a thrombotic microangiopathy. Due to worsening of renal function after plasma exchange therapy, we decided to start therapy with eculizumab. Therapy was carried out with a weekly dose of 900 mg IV for five weeks. An improvement of clinical and biochemical parameters was rapidly observed, and her renal function completely recovered. The therapy was continued for six months, with a dose of 1200 mg of eculizumab every two weeks. One year after discontinuation of the therapy, her blood pressure and renal function were still normal. Our case confirms that it is important to promptly identify a pregnancy-related thrombotic microangiopathy and that early therapy can be life-saving for the patient and can preserve renal function, avoiding dialysis.
