Multicentre comparative study of neural epidermal growth factor-like 1 protein
Article in World journal of nephrology, 2026. 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
backgroundThe understanding of membranous nephropathy (MN) has significantly evolved with the discovery of novel antigenic targets. M-type phospholipase A2 receptor-associated MN (PLA2R-MN) is the most common antigenic variant, followed by neural epidermal growth factor-like 1 protein-associated MN (NELL1-MN). Few studies have directly compared the outcomes of these two variants.
aimTo compare the outcomes of NELL1-MN with PLA2R-MN.
methodsIn this retrospective cohort study, we compared the outcomes of NELL1-MN and PLA2R-MN using time-to-event analysis. Rate of remission - complete or partial - was the primary outcome of interest.
resultsThe 17 patients diagnosed with NELL1-MN during the study period were compared with 24 patients with PLA2R-MN diagnosed during the same month. Antecedent exposure to traditional indigenous medicines was more common in NELL1-MN than PLA2R-MN (70.6%
conclusionNELL1-MN has a favourable prognosis compared to PLA2R-MN. Antigen-specific outcomes research could inform prognosis and guide treatment strategies in MN.
