Idiopathic nodular glomerulosclerosis: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2024. 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
Idiopathic nodular glomerulosclerosis (ING) is a rare condition characterized by poor renal prognosis. The pathophysiology remains incompletely understood. Histologically, it closely resembles diabetic nephropathy. The development of this disease seems to be influenced by factors such as metabolic syndrome, particularly hypertension and glucose intolerance, along with active smoking. We report a case of ING in an obese 71-year-old male patient who had a long history of untreated hypertension and smoking. The patient underwent conservative treatment involving the administration of an angiotensin-2 receptor antagonist and dapagliflozin, resulting in favorable disease progression. Additional therapeutic measures, such as discontinuation of smoking and efforts toward weight loss, are strongly advised. Furthermore, regular screening for diabetes in the follow-up is crucial, as it can play a pathophysiological role in the disease and may manifest at a later stage, as observed in our clinical case.
