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

objectiveTo investigate the correlation between blood concentrations of tacrolimus (FK506) and cystatin C (Cys C) and the effect of FK506 on glycolipid metabolism in renal transplant recipients.

methodsA total of 325 patients receiving renal transplantation between August, 2014 and September, 2015 in Nanfang Hospital were divided into 4 groups according to the postoperative time (1 month group, 1-3 months group, 4-6 months group, and 7-12 months group). FK506 blood trough concentration was measured at the time of postoperative follow-up, and creatinine (Scr) and Cys C levels were also detected. Results Plasma FK506 concentration decreased with age in the recipients and showed a positive correlation with Cys C (r=0.985, P=0.015) but no obvious correlation with Scr (r=0.259, P=0.741). FK506 had no effect on blood glucose (5.53-5.59 mmol<L) or blood lipids (TG 1.47-1.55 mmol<L, TC 5.04-5.17 mmol<L, LDL-C 3.00-3.07 mmol<L, and VLDL 0.73-0.76 mmol<L) in patients 1-6 months after renal transplantation.

conclusionFK506 does not affect the level of glycolipid metabolism in patients after renal transplantation. Cys C is positively related to blood concentration of FK506 in the renal transplantation recipients. The rational use of FK506 can improve the effectiveness and safety of the treatment in the recipients.
