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

unlabelledThe increased disparity between organ supply and need has led to the use of extended criteria donors and donation after cardiac death donors with other comorbidities.

methodsWe have examined the preimplantation transcriptome of 112 kidney transplant recipient samples from 100 deceased-donor kidneys by microarray profiling. Subject groups were segregated based on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at 1 month after transplantation: the GFR-high group (n=74) included patients with eGFR 45 mL/min per 1.73 m(2), whereas the GFR-low group (n=35) included patients with eGFR 45 mL/min or less per 1.73 m(2).

resultsGene expression profiling identified higher expression of 160 probe sets (140 genes) in the GFR-low group, whereas expression of 37 probe sets (33 genes) was higher in the GFR-high group (P<0.01, false discovery rate <0.2). Four genes (CCL5, CXCR4, ITGB2, and EGF) were selected based on fold change and P value and further validated using an independent set of samples. A random forest analysis identified three of these genes (CCL5, CXCR4, and ITGB2) as important predictors of graft function after transplantation.

conclusionsInclusion of pretransplantation molecular gene expression profiles in donor quality assessment systems may provide the necessary information for better donor organ selection and function prediction. These biomarkers would further allow a more objective and complete assessment of procured renal allografts at pretransplantation time.
