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

Antiglomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) glomerulonephritis (GN) has been reported to be associated with tuberculosis (TB), but anti-GBM GN in the context of genitourinary TB is exceptionally rare. We report a case of anti-GBM GN with concurrent genitourinary TB. The patient underwent plasma exchange and was treated with high-dose prednisolone following a 3-day course of intravenous methylprednisolone. Oral cyclophosphamide (125 mg once daily) was also prescribed. After 14 cycles of plasma exchange, the anti-GBM antibody titer decreased. However, the patient developed pulmonary hemorrhage requiring intubation and remained dialysis dependent despite therapy.
