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

Background: Primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS) is an immune-mediated glomerular disease that often reoccurs. However, the characteristics of circulating lymphocyte subsets in PNS children remain unclear. Immunosuppressive therapy can lead to temporary or persistent remissions, but also increases the risk of infection, and whether the circulating lymphocyte subsets can be used to predict the secondary infection also remains unclear. Here, we explored the distribution of lymphocyte subpopulations in the different stages of PNS, and its predictive value of secondary infection in pediatric patients. Methods: We included 89 children who were first PNS episodes or diagnosed with PNS admitted to Nanfang Hospital from September 2019 to April 2021, and 19 healthy children were recruited as controls (C). PNS patients were divided into three groups according to their serum biochemical tests: active group (A), partial remission (PR) group, and complete remission (CR) group. PNS patients with infection symptoms were divided into a co-infection group, others were divided into the non-infection group. The peripheral lymphocyte subsets were analyzed by flow cytometry. The relationship between the peripheral lymphocyte subsets and PNS activity or infection was analyzed. Results: Compared to the healthy controls, the PNS patients' CD8 Conclusions: In this study, we found that T cell subpopulations had different characteristics in PNS during different disease phases. The CD8
