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

Glomerular microangiopathy (GMA) is a group of diseases characterized pathologically by thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) changes in the glomerulus without detectable microthrombi or intima edema of small arteries on renal biopsy. Few studies have focused on the clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of patients with GMA. In this single-center retrospective cohort study, we summarized the clinical and pathological data of patients diagnosed with GMA between January 2005 and July 2023 at the Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Treatment and prognosis were also analyzed. A total of 32 patients diagnosed with GMA were included in this study. They were 62.5% male, with a mean age of 46 ± 17 years. The most common primary diseases were idiopathic multicenter Castleman disease (iMCD) (31.2%), POEMS (polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal plasma cell disorder, and skin changes) syndrome (21.9%), and exposure to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) agents (21.9%). All the patients exhibited various degrees of proteinuria (2.22 g/d (IQR 0.94, 3.50)). Acute kidney injury (AKI) complicated by significantly elevated inflammatory markers was observed in 13 patients, mostly iMCD patients (
