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

backgroundNormothermic machine perfusion (NMP) is an alternative strategy for preserving kidneys donated after cardiac death (DCD). The relative efficacy of prolonged NMP compared to hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) in DCD kidneys with moderate ischemic injury is undetermined. This study compares NMP and HMP kidney preservation in a porcine DCD model.

methodsTen porcine kidneys underwent NMP or HMP preservation following 45 minutes of warm ischemia and 5 hours of cold ischemia. After 8 hours of machine preservation, hemodynamic stability, renal function, perfusate biomarkers, and histologic integrity were assessed in a simulated reperfusion model.

resultsDuring simulated reperfusion, no differences were observed in oxygen consumption, urine production, creatinine clearance, fractional excretion of sodium, proteinuria, and perfusate levels of lactate dehydrogenase and aspartate aminotransferase. Resistance was no different after 30 minutes of simulated reperfusion. Histologically, NMP kidneys demonstrated increased vacuolization after preservation and greater loss of tubular integrity after simulated reperfusion. Perfusate levels of alkaline phosphatase (AP) and gamma glutamyltransferase (GGT) were higher in NMP kidneys during preservation, but upon simulated reperfusion, AP and GGT levels were higher in HMP-preserved kidneys. Peak AP and GGT during simulated reperfusion of HMP kidneys were over 14 times higher than peak AP and GGT during preservation of NMP kidneys.

conclusionsNMP provided comparable preservation of renal function as HMP and minimized AP and GGT release upon reperfusion.
