Validation of serum creatinine-based formulae in pediatric renal transplant recipients.
Article in Pediatric research, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
BackgroundAccurate monitoring of kidney function is important post-renal transplant; however, the routine use of measured glomerular filtration rate (GFR) or addition of newer serum markers is prohibitively expensive for routine clinical use, especially in children. We validated the modified Schwartz formula in pediatric renal transplant recipients across a range of demographic and clinical characteristics.MethodsIn a retrospective cohort study with nested cross-sectional analysis, we compared 505 measurements of estimated GFR using serum creatinine to simultaneous diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) nuclear GFR (nGFR) measurements from 173 pediatric kidney transplant recipients who were < 18 years of age from 1 January 2001 to 31 December 2012 accounting for repeated measures.ResultsAmong 173 children, 62% were males, 85% with nGFR of ≥60 ml/min/1.73 m
