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

Widespread usage of the calcineurin inhibitors tacrolimus and cyclosporine A as post-transplantation immunosuppressive agents is fraught with severe nephrotoxic and diabetogenic side effects. More recently, tapering of calcineurin inhibitor-based immunotherapies with concurrent administration of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitors sirolimus and everolimus has been employed within pharmacological regimens designed to achieve better safety and efficacy for preservation of allograft kidney function. Collected preclinical data and recent clinical study, however, indicate that usage of calcineurin inhibitors and/or mTOR blockers as immunosuppressive agents promotes equivalent diabetogenic side effects. Based on a wealth of validating preclinical studies, we contend that the favorable metabolic effects of mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, such as spironolactone, support their inclusion in novel immunosuppressive strategies to inhibit new onset type II diabetic symptoms in post-transplantation patient populations.
