Complement biomarkers in IgA nephropathy: current insights and clinical relevance.
Review in Frontiers in 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
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common form of primary glomerulonephritis worldwide and is a major contributor to the global burden of chronic kidney disease. Strong evidence highlights complement activation as a key driver of the disease pathogenesis and its progression. In this regard, the emergence of new therapies targeting the complement system has further increased interest in specific biomarkers that can help in diagnosis, prognosis, and assessment of response to therapy in patients with IgAN. Although complement biomarkers show promising associations with disease severity and prognosis, most remain exploratory and lack adequate validation for routine clinical application. Further research should focus on standardization and prospective multicenter validation of putative biomarkers to facilitate a biomarker-driven approach to the use of complement inhibitors in IgAN. Therefore, this review summarizes a growing body of evidence on the role of complement-related biomarkers in IgAN and discusses their diagnostic and prognostic potential, as well as several limitations for implementation in clinical practice.
