Chimerism in women with end stage renal diseases: Who's who?
Article in Chimerism. 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
Many sources of foreign or semi foreign cells, known as microchimerism (Mc), can be found in healthy individuals. We have recently shown in women with end stage renal disease (ESRD) that Mc frequencies and levels are exacerbated prior to kidney transplantation. Is Mc arising from pregnancy a protective factor for renal diseases explaining lower incidence in women? Is Mc helpful in slowing down disease progression? However, natural Mc is not the only actor as post blood transfusion Mc is also found at high levels in women with ESRD. The difficulty is therefore to distinguish the different types of Mc and this is made even more complicated when the recipient receives a potentially chimeric organ. What part does each source of chimerism play in disease and transplant fate, and can one decipher each role knowing that one chimerism may hide another?
