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

Obesity is associated with chronic metabolic conditions that directly and indirectly cause kidney parenchymal damage. A review of the literature was conducted to explore existing evidence of the relationship between obesity and chronic kidney disease as well as the role of bariatric surgery in improving access to kidney transplantation for patients with a high body mass index. The review showed no definitive evidence to support the use of a transplant eligibility cut-off parameter based solely on the body mass index. Moreover, in the pre-transplant scenario, the obesity paradox is associated with better patient survival among obese than non-obese patients, although promising results of bariatric surgery are emerging. However, until more information regarding improvement in outcomes for obese kidney transplant candidates is available, clinicians should focus on screening of the overall frailty condition of transplant candidates to ensure their eligibility and addition to the wait list.
