Simultaneous Appearance of Immunoglobulin A Nephropathy and Tubulointerstitial Nephritis and Uveitis Syndrome: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in nephrology and dialysis. 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
Introduction: Immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy usually occurs after upper respiratory tract infection. The currently widely accepted pathomechanism involves genetic predisposition, formation of galactose-deficient IgA1, and production of autoantibodies against these IgA, ultimately leading to mesangial deposition of immune complexes. Tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis (TINU) syndrome is a rare disease with a suspected autoimmune mechanism, although the exact etiology and pathomechanism are not fully understood. To our knowledge, only a few cases with simultaneous occurrence of these two entities have been reported in common literature so far. Case Presentation: A 53-year-old Ethiopian woman presented with a month of postprandial nausea, vomiting, occipital headache, 5 kilogram weight loss and intermittent night sweats. Laboratory examinations revealed hematuria and impaired renal function, histological findings showed acute tubulointerstitial nephritis and glomerulonephritis. Further assessments revealed left-sided anterior uveitis as well as a Conclusion: Further research is needed to elucidate possible causality between IgA nephropathy, TINU syndrome, and the potential trigger factors involved.
