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

Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a severe systemic disorder with multiorgan manifestations due to thrombosis of the microvasculature. Pregnancy and post-partum are particularly high-risk periods for many forms of TMA. The disease progression is rapid and can lead to organ failure and even death; therefore, urgent recognition and treatment are paramount. The presence of other triggers such as infections or autoimmune diseases like systematic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can add further complexity, which emphasizes the need for definitive diagnostic investigations such as kidney biopsy to promptly direct further diagnosis and management. We describe a case of a 27-year-old female with post-partum severe acute kidney injury and nephrotic range proteinuria. She had a new diagnosis of active SLE and was found to have TMA on kidney biopsy without conclusive features of lupus nephritis. She was managed successfully with plasma exchange with rapid improvement of her kidney markers.
