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

Atypical anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease is characterized by linear immunoglobulin G (IgG) deposition along the GBM without circulating IgG anti-GBM antibodies. Compared to classic anti-GBM disease, atypical anti-GBM disease tends to be milder with a more indolent course in certain cases. Moreover, pathologic disease pattern is much more heterogenous in atypical anti-GBM disease than in the classic type, which is uniformly characterized by diffuse crescentic and necrotizing glomerulonephritis. Although there is no single well-established target antigen in atypical anti-GBM disease, the target antigen (within the GBM) and the autoantibody type are hypothesized to be different from the classic type. Some patients have the same antigen as the Goodpasture antigen that are detected only by a highly sensitive technique (biosensor analysis). Some cases of atypical anti-GBM disease have autoantibodies of a different subclass restriction like IgG4, or of monoclonal nature. Antibodies targeting antigen/epitope structure other than the Goodpasture antigen can be detected using modified assays in some cases. Patients with IgA- and IgM-mediated anti-GBM disease are known to have negative circulating antibodies because conventional assays do not detect these classes of antibodies. A significant proportion of cases with atypical anti-GBM disease do not have any identifiable antibodies despite extensive evaluation. Nevertheless, extensive evaluation of atypical autoantibodies using modified assays and sensitive techniques should be attempted, if feasible. This review summarizes the recent literature on atypical anti-GBM disease.
