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

Renal involvement is a common condition in rheumatologic diseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical presentations and histopathological results in patients diagnosed with non-lupus rheumatic diseases who underwent renal biopsy. The records of 900 renal biopsies performed at our hospital between 2004 and 2023 were retrospectively reviewed, and 139 patients diagnosed with non-lupus rheumatic diseases were included. Data on demographic and clinical characteristics, laboratory results, renal biopsy indications, and histopathological findings were obtained from hospital records. Among the patients, 46 had rheumatoid arthritis (RA), 31 had ankylosing spondylitis (AS), 31 had familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), 17 had Behçet's disease (BD), and 14 had psoriasis (PsO). The most common indication for biopsy was hematuria + subnephrotic proteinuria, accounting for 17.3%. The most frequent pathological diagnosis was amyloidosis (36.7%), followed by focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) (19.4%), chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN) (8.6%), immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy (7.9%), and membranous glomerulonephritis (7.2%). A significant difference was noted among rheumatologic diseases groups according to the reasons for biopsy (
