New Treatment Regimens, New Drugs, and New Treatment Goals for Lupus Nephritis.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Lupus nephritis is one of the most severe manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus, affecting roughly 40% of all lupus patients. With the introduction of cyclophosphamide and mycophenolate mofetil, outcomes have dramatically improved. However, 10% of patients still progress towards end-stage kidney disease, which carries an elevated mortality rate. In recent years, several novel agents have been approved for use or have shown preliminary evidence of efficacy in lupus nephritis. These agents include belimumab, voclosporin, and obinutuzumab, among others. Efficacy has also been demonstrated in recent trials combining older drugs. However, determining which patients would benefit the most from novel agents or combined drug regimens and whether these drugs might serve as an alternative to current remission-induction drug regimens rather than as add-on therapies remain unresolved issues. In this review, we will explore the current evidence regarding the efficacy of novel agents.
