Graft loss among renal-transplant recipients with early reduction of immunosuppression for BK viremia.
Article in World journal of transplantation, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
aimTo review the incidence of graft loss and acute rejection among renal transplant recipients with early reduction of immunosuppression for BK viremia.
methodsWe performed a retrospective analysis of consecutive
resultsAmong 319 kidney transplant recipients, the median age was 53 years (range 19-83), 65.8% were male, and 58.9% were white. Biopsy-proven acute rejection was found in 18.5% within 0-168 wk. Death-censored graft loss occurred in 5.3% (
conclusionInstituting an early reduction of immunosuppression, in the absence of adjunctive antivirals, is effective at preventing PyVAN and may be associated with a lower incidence of graft-loss without a reciprocal increase in the incidence of acute rejection.
