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

This case series includes five patients diagnosed as isolated vascular lesion (IVL) on allograft biopsy in an early post-transplant period. These patients presented with graft dysfunction. The biopsies satisfied the criteria for IVL as laid down by Banff 2009. Four of these patients were treated with corticosteroids and other anti rejection measures. C4d and DSA were negative in all. The patients showed good response to treatment with stable graft function at the longest follow-up of one year. We have also reviewed the literature about IVL as a specific entity. There are differences between the molecular and clinical data of IVL. It is difficult to differentiate whether IVL is a rejection or non-rejection process. This study aims to highlight the importance of a rare entity.
