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

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common form of glomerulonephritis and affected patients are at high risk of developing kidney failure over time. Recent molecular studies have led to substantial new insights into the pathogenesis of IgAN. This involves the identification of genetic risk factors in genome-wide association studies, the use of multi-omics approaches to integrate big data, the recognition of the importance of the gut-kidney axis, the role of plasma cells in the production of IgA and IgG, the potential specificity of circulating IgA for mesangial antigens, and the activation of the complement system with subsequent damage to glomerular cells. These fundamental insights were governed by the use of various animal models involving mesangial deposition of IgA, inflammation and glomerular injury. This review summarizes recently identified pathophysiological mechanisms as well as animal models of IgAN and provides an updated view on the molecular events that underlie IgAN.
