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

purpose of reviewKidney transplantation and gender affirmation treatments are becoming increasingly more prevalent due to advances in technology. However, there is a paucity of data regarding kidney transplantation in transgender patients. Interesting considerations must be made in this patient population, since there are many hormonal interactions with kidney function and the transplantation process. RECENT

findingsThe diagnosis of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), preoperative assessment/counseling, decreased testosterone levels in a transgender male to female patient, increased estrogen/progesterone in a female to male patient, and drug side effects all have important and unique implications for kidney transplant recipients. Kidney transplantation can be safely and effectively managed in transgender patients with special considerations in eGFR calculations, mental health/lifestyle counseling, and drug interactions.
