Newer B-cell and plasma-cell targeted treatments for rituximab-resistant patients with membranous nephropathy.
Review in Clinical kidney journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Membranous nephropathy is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults. While spontaneous remission occurs in approximately one-third of cases, another one-third of patients receiving immunosuppressive therapy demonstrate treatment resistance. This resistance, coupled with persistent proteinuria, significantly increases the risk of kidney failure. Alternative therapies, including B-cell and plasma-cell targeted treatments have been explored in isolated cases and case series. In this review, we examine the available evidence on the treatment of resistant and relapsing membranous nephropathy with a particular focus on B- and plasma-cell directed therapies.
