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

Monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance (MGRS) is a group of pathologies that includes all kidney disorders related to a monoclonal protein in patients without diagnostic criteria for B-cell malignancies. There are multiple MGRS-associated kidney disorders, and more are still being discovered, which makes this diagnosis challenging. The relationship between monoclonal gammopathies and thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is of growing interest in literature. This article describes the case of a patient with newly diagnosed MGRS, presenting with rapidly progressing kidney failure and with histologic characteristics of TMA. The patient progressed to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) despite treatment with plasmapheresis and clone-directed therapy, as is currently advised in the literature. Although rare, the association between these two entities should not be unnoticed because of patients' renal and vital prognosis.
