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

backgroundRenal transplantation is the treatment of choice for most patients with end stage renal disease. In addition, renal biopsy is the gold standard to assess the causes of renal allograft dysfunction. This study was designed to evaluate and designate renal lesions according to Banff schema.

methodsIn this cross-sectional study, all renal allograft biopsies obtained from renal transplant patients at Alzahra and Noor referral hospitals in Isfahan during 2006-2008 were studied. Evaluations were made according to the Banff classification 2009. Clinical data was collected from the pathology database and analyzed using SPSS.

resultsA total number of 161 specimens were studied from 68% male and 32% female subjects. The donor source was living unrelated in 85%, living related 9.9% and cadaveric in 5% of cases. Pathologic results showed 22.4% acute tubular necrosis (ATN), 13.7% interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IF/TA) grade II, 9.9% IF/TA (Grade III), 6.8% acute T-cell mediated rejection (TCMR-IA), 5.6% TCMR-IB, 5% borderline change, 5% infarction, 4.3% TCMR-IIA, 4.3% TA/IF (Grade I), 3.7% acute antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR), 1.9% TCMR-IIB and 17.4% other lesions.

conclusionsThe commonest causes of graft dysfunction after kidney transplant were IF/TA, no evidence of any specific etiology (NOS) and ATN. Living donors were found to be important sources for kidney transplantation in Iran.
