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

Introduction: Diagnosis and management of microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) have evolved considerably over the past decades, but it is unknown whether clinical and histological presentation and patient and renal outcomes have changed accordingly. Methods: We compared clinical and histopathological characteristic at diagnosis, risk of death, end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), and relapse rate in patients diagnosed with MPA between 1980 and 2022, after grouping them in 2 periods (p): p1980-2001 and p2002-2022. We compared the mortality rate between the 2 periods using Kaplan-Meier estimator and Cox-regression, and competing risks of ESKD and death using the Aalen-Johansen estimator, Fine-Gray multiple regression, and multistate models. Results: Out of 187 patients, 77 were in p1980-2001 and 110 in p2002 to 2022. Patients in p2002 to 2022 were older (66.2 ± 14.0 SD vs. 57.7 ± 15.8; Conclusion: MPA kidney involvement has become less severe over the past decades, leading to a reduced risk of ESKD and a higher relapse rate, despite a comparable risk of death.
