Cardiac evaluation prior to kidney transplantation.
Article in Seminars in dialysis. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for most patients with stage 5 chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease (ESRD), offering improved quality of life and overall survival rates. However, the limited supply of available organs makes this a scarce resource. Cardiovascular complications continue to be the leading cause of mortality in the kidney transplant population, accounting for over 30% of deaths with a functioning allograft. Thus, preoperative cardiac risk assessment is critical to optimize patient selection and outcomes. Currently there is no consensus for cardiovascular evaluation in the chronic kidney disease and ESRD population prior to kidney transplantation; the recommendations of the American Society of Nephrology and American Society of Transplantation differ from those of the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology. Previously developed risk scores have also been used to risk stratify this population. In this review, we discuss two cases that illustrate the difficulties of interpreting the prognostic value of current testing strategies. We also discuss the importance of different tests for cardiovascular evaluation as well as previous nonkidney transplant specific risk scores used in the pre-kidney transplant population.
