C3 Glomerulonephritis Presenting With Nephritic and Nephrotic Syndromes: Spontaneous Remission After Six Months on Dialysis.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
C3 glomerulopathy is a rare and complex renal disease driven by complement dysregulation, with variable presentation and pathophysiology. We report the case of a middle-aged male patient presenting with nephritic and nephrotic syndromes and low serum C3, whose biopsy established the diagnosis of C3 glomerulonephritis. He was found to be homozygous for the complement factor H-related protein (CFHR)3-CFHR1 deletion, which has been associated with the development of anti-factor H autoantibodies. However, the lack of consistent and accessible nephritic factor assays prevented full clarification of the mechanisms involved in the disease. Interestingly, despite not receiving treatment due to suspicion of malignancy and perceived poor renal prognosis, there was spontaneous recovery after six months on hemodialysis. This case reflects the enduring challenges in establishing the diagnosis and prognosis of C3 glomerulonephritis.
