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

purposeWhether different crescentic proportions determine the progression of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) with crescents in less than 50% of glomeruli remains controversial. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between different proportions of crescents and kidney outcomes in IgAN with partial crescent formation.

methodsPatients diagnosed as IgAN, having at least two crescents and in less than 50% of glomeruli, were categorized into three groups: Group I (crescents in ≤10% of glomeruli), Group II (10%< crescents ≤25% of glomeruli) and Group III (crescents >25% of glomeruli). Baseline clinicopathological parameters were evaluated. The kidney endpoint was a composite of

resultsOf 183 IgAN patients with crescents in less than 50% of glomeruli, baseline 24-hour urinary protein and immunosuppressive treatment varied among the three groups (

conclusionThe proportion of crescents reaching 10% of glomeruli in IgAN was identified as an independent risk factor for kidney survival.
