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: Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common form of primary glomerulonephritis worldwide. It is defined by mesangial IgA deposition, with consequent mesangial cell proliferation, inflammation, and tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Summary: Approximately 30% of affected patients will progress to end-stage kidney disease within 20 years of diagnosis. Currently, there is no disease-specific treatment available and management recommendations are, in general, limited to optimization of lifestyle measures and use of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockers. More recently, advances in the understanding of the pathogenesis of IgAN have informed the development of novel therapeutic strategies that are now being tested in clinical trials. These have focused on different areas that include modulating the production of poorly galactosylated IgA1, which is central to the development of IgAN, and inhibiting the downstream signaling pathways and complement activation that are triggered following mesangial IgA1 deposition. In this review, we will summarize important pathogenic mechanisms in IgAN and highlight important areas of interest where treatment strategies are being developed. Key messages: IgAN is a common form of primary glomerulonephritis for which there is no current approved specific therapy. Recent advances in the understanding of its pathogenesis have led to the development of novel therapies, with the hope that new treatment options will be available soon to treat this condition.
