Clinical features of anemia in membranous nephropathy patients: a Chinese cohort study.
Article in Renal failure, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundAnemia is a common complication in patients with progressive chronic kidney disease. This cohort study evaluated the prevalence, clinical features and prognosis of membranous nephropathy (MN) with anemia.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed a cohort of MN patients diagnosed using renal biopsy between February 2012 and February 2018. The clinical and pathological characteristics at baseline were recorded, and the outcomes (hemoglobin, proteinuria and renal function) during follow-ups were also evaluated. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the independent risk factors for anemia in MN patients. The MN patients were divided according to the therapeutic effect they experienced as follows: without-anemia, completely corrected anemia, standard anemia treatment and nonstandard anemia treatment groups. We compared the rate of complete remission of MN and renal end-point events among the four groups.
resultsThe median age of 483 patients was 42.43 (26.59, 50.20) years at the time of MN diagnosis. The prevalence of anemia at baseline was 23.81%, and the cumulative prevalence was 50.72%. There were 133 cases of mild anemia, 103 cases of moderate anemia and 9 cases of severe anemia; in addition, there were 228 cases of normocytic anemia and 17 cases of microcytic hypochromic anemia. Multivariate logistic regression indicated that acute renal tubule injury >5% (OR = 1.634, 95% CI 1.034, 2.581;
conclusionThe anemia experienced by MN patients is mainly mild and moderate, normocytic anemia. The pathological features of acute renal tubular injury and clinical nutritional status are independent risk factors for anemia. There were differences in renal prognosis among anemia patients with different treatment outcomes.
