Emerging Therapies in IgA Nephropathy: From A Proliferation-Inducing Ligand (APRIL) and B-cell Activating Factor (BAFF) Inhibitors to Precision Medicine.
Review in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent primary glomerular disease worldwide and a significant contributor to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). Traditional management has centered on supportive care and non-specific immunosuppression, but recent advances in the understanding of pathogenic pathways have catalyzed the development of targeted therapies. This review synthesizes current evidence on evolving treatments, with a focus on A Proliferation-Inducing Ligand (APRIL) and B-cell Activating Factor (BAFF) (e.g., sibeprenlimab, atacicept, povetacicept, telitacicept), complement pathway modulators (e.g., iptacopan, cemdisiran, ravulizumab), and novel agents such as felzartamab and sparsentan. It also explores precision medicine strategies, including biomarker-guided therapy, individualized risk stratification, and combination regimens. Supported by high-quality recent clinical trial data and the latest kidney disease outcome guidelines, these innovations represent a paradigm shift toward personalized, disease-modifying treatment in IgAN, offering a new horizon for improved renal outcomes and long-term disease control.
