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

Delayed graft function (DGF) is commonly defined as the requirement for dialysis within the first 7 days following renal transplantation. The major underlying mechanism is related to ischaemia/reperfusion injury, which includes microvascular inflammation and cell death and apoptosis, and to the regeneration processes. Several clinical factors related to donor, recipient and organ procurement/transplantation procedures may increase the risk of DGF, including donor cardiovascular instability, older donor age, donor creatinine concentration, long cold ischaemia time and marked body mass index of both the donor and recipient. Some of these parameters have been used in specific predictive formulas created to assess the risk of DGF. A variety of other pre-, intra- and post-transplant clinical factors may also increase the risk of DGF, such as potential drug nephrotoxicity, surgical problems and/or hyperimmunization of the recipient. DGF may decrease the long-term graft function, but data on this effect are inconsistent, partially due to the many different types of organ donation. Relevant management strategies may be classified into the classic clinical approach, which has the aim of minimizing the individual risk factors of DGF, and specific pharmacologic strategies, which are designed to prevent or treat ischaemia/reperfusion injury. Both strategies are currently being evaluated in clinical trials.
