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

In this study, we examined whether the IL-8 content of urine sampled on day 1 and day 14 after renal transplantation is a marker of early and long-term renal function. Moreover, we assessed whether its concentration is positively correlated with the matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) content of urine sampled on day 1 and day 30 and 12 months after renal transplantation. Our analysis covered 87 patients who underwent a kidney transplant. The patients were observed for an average of 30 months (12-60 months). The IL-8 concentration determined on day 1 was significantly negatively correlated with creatinine clearance early after renal transplantation (on days 1, 7, 14 and 30), as well as during long-term observations. IL-8 concentration in urine sampled on day 1 and day 14 was higher in patients demonstrating DGF than in those without DGF. No relationship was found between IL-8 content and cold ischaemia time. MMP-9 activity determined on day 1 and month 3 after renal transplantation was positively correlated with the IL-8 content determined in urine sampled on day 1, Rs = +0.32, p < .05 and Rs = +0.31, p < .05, respectively. The results of this study suggest that a high IL-8 content in urine sampled on day 1 after renal transplantation is an unfavourable marker of early and long-term (years-long) graft function. A high IL-8 content in urine sampled on day 1 after renal transplantation was positively correlated with the activity of metalloproteinase-9 in urine. This proves that both of these chemokines cooperate in ischaemia-reperfusion injuries in transplanted kidneys.
