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

Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is a clinical disorder characterized by significant proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, hyperlipidemia, edema, and other complications. Urinary loss of clotting inhibitors, zymogens, and plasminogen; increased hepatic synthesis of fibrinogen and lipoproteins, and hemoconcentration due to fluid loss are some of the factors which predispose NS patients to hypercoagulable states like portal vein thrombosis. Case presentation: In the presenting case report, we described a 21-year-old woman with no history of NS and a hypercoagulable state who presented to our emergency department with severe generalized abdominal pain and lower limb edema. She was subsequently diagnosed with NS complicated with portal vein thrombosis and was admitted to our internal medicine unit. After 2 weeks of treatment, the patient was discharged in good health. Conclusion: Additional evaluation for newly onset NS with venous thrombosis should be needed in the presence of severe abdominal pain and lower limb edema even in a patient without a previous history of NS.
