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

purposeHenoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN) has a poor prognosis and variable pathophysiology. The present study aimed to analyze the kidney injury, clinicopathology, and prognosis of HSPN children.

methodsThis retrospective study examined 249 children with HSPN. The patients' pathological and clinical data were collected. The patients were divided into the following groups according to the duration of their kidney injury: groups with disease duration of < 2 weeks, 2 weeks to 1 month, 1-2 months, 2-4 months, 4-6 months, and ≥ 6 months. The clinicopathological and prognostic relationships were examined between the groups.

resultsWe enrolled 249 children with HSPN (average age of 10.12 ± 3.01 years). There were 161 boys (64.66%) and 88 girls (35.34%). Altogether, 191 children (76.71%) developed kidney injury within 2 months. A total of 37 children (14.86%) showed recurrent renal damage after 6 months. Most patient groups exhibited hematuria and proteinuria, with type III pathology being the most common. During 2 weeks and 1 month of kidney injury, the acute pathology index peaked and then decreased; then, it increased again after 4 months as recurrence occurred. The chronic pathology index was the highest in the group with a disease duration of 2-4 months and it increased with increasing disease duration. The prognosis worsens with the disease duration.

conclusionChildren with HSPN showed disease remission after a duration of 4-6 months. The acute and chronic pathology indexes peaked between 2 weeks to 1 month and 2-4 months, respectively. Patients with kidney injury occurring within a month had a much higher remission rate.
