Case Report: Full-house renal-limited lupus-like nephritis in pregnancy.
Article in Frontiers in nephrology, 2025. 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
Lupus nephropathy is a common manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), with immune-mediated inflammatory damage to the glomerulus leading to acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, and end-stage renal disease. Occasionally, patients present with renal-limited lupus nephropathy with classic full-house staining on immunofluorescence and no signs of systemic lupus. Limited data are available on renal-limited "lupus-like nephropathy" in pregnancy. A 24-year-old G1P0 woman at 14 weeks of gestation was referred to nephrology for further evaluation of 8.4g proteinuria. She was found to be ANA negative with a decreased C1q level and a renal biopsy revealing membranous nephropathy. Immunofluorescence staining was positive for IgG, IgA, IgM, C3, and C1Q, consistent with full-house pattern. She was started on 500 mg pulse dose methylprednisolone for 3 days, which was gradually tapered to 5 mg daily, and cyclosporine 75 mg BID. She delivered a healthy baby via induction at 36 weeks. Six-month follow-up revealed 1g protein on 24-hour urine collection, normal C3/C4 levels, and no signs of SLE. This case report adds to the literature discussing renal-limited "lupus-like nephropathy" in pregnancy and helps guide further management of this condition.
