An Introduction to Stereology with Applications to the Glomerulus.
Review in Glomerular diseases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Stereology is the science of inferring quantitative features of 3-dimensional structures from lower dimensional samples of those structures (probes). It is a statistical discipline and therefore may seem intimidating to many potential users. Without a proper understanding of its principles, though, errors may be made in the quantitative reporting of structural research results. Summary: This review article attempts to explain and justify the basic principles of stereology as applied to the glomerulus in a simple and accessible way. A few common errors in application are described. The strengths and weaknesses of "biased" (model-based) stereology are described as well as the basics of design-based ("unbiased") stereology. Key Messages: Stereology is a useful body of theory and practices when quantitation of structural histological features of the glomerulus is desired.
