Diagnostic Dilemma: Cardiorenal Syndrome As an Unusual Presentation of IgG4-Related Disease.
Article in Indian journal of nephrology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
IgG4-related kidney disease (IgG4 RKD) is a rare clinical entity characterized by lymphoplasmacytic infiltration rich in IgG4-positive plasma cells along with fibrosis affecting several organs. Tubulointerstitial nephritis is commonly the predominant finding on kidney biopsy. Our patient was admitted with a provisional diagnosis of cardiorenal syndrome of unknown etiology. The patient was dialysis dependent for around 45 days following which kidney biopsy revealed features of acute tubulointerstitial nephritis (ATIN) with IgG4-positive plasma cells and no glomerular involvement. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography was supportive of findings of sialadenitis along with myocarditis. Our patient responded to treatment with steroids with definitive improvement in both renal and cardiac functions. This case highlights the importance of IgG4 RKD as an important differential in patients with ATIN presenting as a clinical syndrome.
