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

objectivesWith the in-depth study of complement dysregulation, glomerulonephritis with dominant C3 has received increasing attention, with a variety of pathologic types and large differences in symptoms and prognosis between pathologic types. This study analyzes the clinical, pathological, and prognostic characteristics of different pathological types of glomerulonephritis with dominant C3, aiming to avoid misdiagnosis and missed diagnoses.

methodsThe clinical, pathological, and follow-up data of 52 patients diagnosed as glomerulonephritis with dominant C3 by renal biopsy from June 2013 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the clinical feature and results of pathology, 15 patients with post-infectious glomerulonephritis (PIGN) and 37 patients with of non-infectious glomerulonephritis (N-PIGN) were classified. N-PIGN subgroup analysis was performed, and 16 patients were assigned into a C3-alone-deposition group and 21 in a C3-dominant-deposition group, or 27 in a C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) group and 10 in a non-C3 nephropathy (N-C3G) group.

resultsThe PIGN group had lower creatinine values (84.60 μmol/L vs179.62 μmol/L,

conclusionsGlomerulonephritis with dominant C3 covers a variety of pathological types, and PIGN needs to be excluded before diagnosing C3G because of considerable overlap with atypical PIGN and C3G; in addition, the deposition of C1q complement under fluorescence microscope may indicate poor renal prognosis, and relevant diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up should be strengthened.
