The Prevalence and Characteristics of Circulating IgA Anti-Glomerular Basement Membrane Autoantibodies in Anti-Glomerular Basement Membrane Disease.
Article in Kidney international reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Introduction: In some cases, immunoglobulin (IgA)-mediated antiglomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease has been reported. Whether circulating IgA anti-GBM antibodies affect the clinico-pathologic characteristics and outcome of typical anti-GBM disease deserves further study. Methods: Circulating IgA anti-α3(IV)NC1 antibodies were examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using recombinant human α3(IV)NC1 as solid phase antigens in 107 patients with anti-GBM disease and 115 controls. Clinical, pathological, and follow-up data of patients were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Circulating IgA anti-α3(IV)NC1 antibodies were found in 18.7% (20/107) of patients with anti-GBM disease but were not detected in healthy controls or in patients with other glomerular diseases. The positivity of circulating IgA anti-α3(IV)NC1 antibodies was not associated with whether the patient was with combined IgA nephropathy or other glomerulonephritis. Kidney immunofluorescence showed no statistical difference in IgA deposition between patients with circulating IgA anti-α3(IV)NC1 antibodies and patients without (30.0% vs. 40.4%, Conclusion: Circulating IgA anti-α3(IV)NC1 antibodies occurred in 18.7% (20/107) of patients with anti-GBM in our center and were specific to anti-GBM disease. Patients with circulating IgA anti-α3(IV)NC1 antibodies showed a higher levels of serum IgG anti-α3(IV)NC1 antibodies than those without.
