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

Echocardiography is commonly performed as a screening test to evaluate perioperative risks before kidney transplantation. However, only limited data are available on echocardiographic parameters of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) and left atrial enlargement (LAE) on acute coronary syndrome and mortality in kidney transplant recipients. We reviewed 2779 adult recipients who underwent pretransplant echocardiography from 1997 to 2012. We divided the patients into two and four groups by two categories: LVDD grades 0-1 vs. 2-3, and left atrial size quartile groups. During a mean follow-up of 4.5 years, acute coronary syndrome occurred in 89 (3.2%) patients. The recipients with LVDD grades 2-3 (
