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

Membranous nephropathy is one of the most common causes of nephrotic syndrome in adults and is caused by the deposition of immune complexes in the subepithelial space of the glomerular basement membranes. On the other hand, Guillain-Barré syndrome is a type of acute, potentially fatal polyneuropathy, which is generally associated with an infection that serves as the initial immunological event and triggers immune-mediated disruption of the axon and/or myelin. We present the case of a 70-year-old patient with concurrent membranous nephropathy and Guillain-Barré syndrome, with subepithelial deposits in the renal biopsy positive for Exostosin 1, and who reached complete renal remission after treatment of Guillain-Barré syndrome with plasmapheresis and systemic corticosteroids, suggesting a common autoimmune origin for both entities.
