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

Urinary tract infection (UTI) remains the most common type of infection contracted by kidney transplant patients. UTI reduces both patient and graft survival. Understanding and managing UTI in transplant patients requires an appreciation of their unique anatomy and physiology. Both the transplant and native urinary systems can be affected by upper and/or lower urinary tract infections. Factors that contribute to UTI in kidney transplant patients are numerous and interact with each other. Factors can include excessive immunosuppression by medications and/or chronic disease, foreign material in the urinary system, transplant kidneys affected by ischaemia-reperfusion injury, non-functioning native kidneys, and abnormal lower urinary tracts. Research is ongoing to highlight the roles each of these contributing factors play and how they may be mitigated to reduce the incidence of UTI. Antimicrobials remain the mainstays of treatment and prophylaxis and this has promoted the development of multi-drug resistant organisms. This challenge necessitates awareness of UTI and methods to reduce rates by all healthcare professionals involved in kidney transplantation.
