Rapidly Progressive Glomerulonephritis: A COVID-19 Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis is a systemic autoimmune disease that typically presents as a multi-organ manifesting disease of unclear etiology that can predispose to rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN). If left untreated, ANCA-associated vasculitis can be fatal, and RPGN can progress to irreversible renal failure. Environmental and genetic factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of this vasculitis. Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has been noted to have various physiologic impacts on the body, with literature indicating possible autoimmune effects. We present a rare case of ANCA-associated vasculitis in an elderly male with no known autoimmune history after a recent illness with COVID-19. The patient had been seen as an outpatient with progressively declining renal function until he presented to the hospital with acute renal failure and pericarditis. Workup revealed elevated anti-myeloperoxidase antibody (MPO-AB) and perinuclear ANCA (p-ANCA) antibodies with a biopsy confirming focal cresenteric glomerulonephritis, and the patient was initiated on steroid therapy with notable improvement and a return to baseline kidney function.
