Navigating Pediatric Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome: A Two-Year Case Series From Eastern India.
Article in Cureus, 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
Background Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is an ultra-rare form of thrombotic microangiopathy that results from complement system activation. It represents a significant etiology of acute kidney injury among children. In India, aHUS is predominantly associated with anti-factor H antibodies, presenting unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. This study aims to delineate the clinical characteristics, immunological profile, management strategies, and outcomes of pediatric aHUS cases from a tertiary center in Eastern India. Methodology We conducted a retrospective, observational, case series at a tertiary care hospital in Eastern India, including seven pediatric patients diagnosed with aHUS between January 2023 and December 2024. Diagnosis was based on a clinical triad (acute kidney injury, microangiopathic anemia, thrombocytopenia), exclusion of Shiga toxin-associated cases and secondary causes, confirmation with complement/anti-factor H antibody testing, and, where feasible, genetic analysis. Patients received plasma exchange, immunomodulators, and supportive care. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results A total of seven children (median age = 7 years, six females) were treated for aHUS.
