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

Exostosin 1 (EXT1) and exostosin 2 (EXT2)-associated membranous nephropathy (MN) may be associated with active autoimmune disease. We encountered an elderly man who presented with EXT1/EXT2-associated lupus-like MN with full house immune deposits, monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance and Sjögren's syndrome. The patient exhibited various other immune abnormalities. Although he did not fulfill the criteria of clinical systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), he met a stand-alone renal criterion of the Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC) 2012. Whether or not a stand-alone renal criterion with EXT1/EXT2 positivity, as in the present patient, can efficiently guide decisions regarding the diagnosis and treatment of SLE remains a clinical dilemma.
