Prostate Cancer Associated with Minimal Change Disease: A Case Report.
Article in Glomerular diseases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Introduction: Minimal change disease (MCD), a common cause of primary nephrotic syndrome that accounts for 10%-15% of all primary nephrotic syndrome cases in adults, is frequently associated with malignant lymphoma. However, studies on MCD associated with prostate cancer are scarce. Case Presentation: A 73-year-old male with prostate cancer was referred to our department with hypoalbuminemia and severe proteinuria while waiting for prostatectomy. We diagnosed the patient with nephrotic syndrome and performed a renal biopsy. Renal pathological findings were consistent with those of MCD. The clinical course suggested an association between prostate cancer and MCD as our patient achieved complete remission of MCD after receiving androgen deprivation and radiation therapy for prostate cancer without the use of glucocorticoids or other immunosuppressants. Discussion: Although MCD can be associated with solid tumors, MCD associated with prostate cancer is very rare. The current case is the first to directly raise the possibility that secondary MCD may develop due to prostate cancer in some patients.
