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

Sarcoidosis-lymphoma syndrome, first described by Henrik Brincker in 1986, is defined by the association of sarcoidosis with lymphoid neoplasms. This condition may present with sarcoidosis preceding, occurring concurrently with, or developing after the neoplasm. Its pathogenesis remains poorly understood. Kidney involvement by granulomatous interstitial nephritis is well-documented, including in cases of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL), where granulomas typically occur in proximity to neoplastic infiltrates. However, no prior reports in the literature describe histologically confirmed granulomatous interstitial nephritis affecting the kidney in the absence of concurrent CLL/SLL infiltration. We report two patients with a history of CLL/SLL who presented with acute kidney injury (AKI). Kidney involvement by the underlying malignancy was initially suspected, supported by radiologic findings of extensive lymphadenopathy. Unexpectedly, renal biopsies revealed diffuse granulomatous interstitial nephritis without evidence of CLL/SLL. Based on these results, both patients received immunosuppressive and/or clone-directed therapies, leading to improved kidney function.
