Mannitol and renal graft injury in patients undergoing deceased donor renal transplantation - a randomized controlled clinical trial.
Trial report in BMC nephrology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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.

Abstract
backgroundIschaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is associated with renal tissue damage during deceased donor renal transplantation. The effect of mannitol to reduce I/R injury during graft reperfusion in renal transplant recipients is based on weak evidence. We evaluated the effect of mannitol to reduce renal graft injury represented by 16 serum biomarkers, which are indicators for different important pathophysiological pathways. Our primary outcome were differences in biomarker concentrations between the mannitol and the placebo group 24 h after graft reperfusion. Additionally, we performed a linear mixed linear model to account biomarker concentrations before renal transplantation.
methodsThirty-four patients undergoing deceased donor renal transplantation were randomly assigned to receive either 20% mannitol or 0.9% NaCl placebo solution before, during, and after graft reperfusion. Sixteen serum biomarkers (MMP1, CHI3L1, CCL2, MMP8, HGF, GH, FGF23, Tie2, VCAM1, TNFR1, IGFBP7, IL18, NGAL, Endostatin, CystC, KIM1) were measured preoperatively and 24 h after graft reperfusion using Luminex assays and ELISA.
resultsSixteen patients in each group were analysed. Tie2 differed 24 h after graft reperfusion between both groups (p = 0.011). Change of log2 transformed concentration levels over time differed significantly in four biomarkers (VCAM1,Endostatin, KIM1, GH; p = 0.007; p = 0.013; p = 0.004; p = 0.033; respectively) out of 16 between both groups.
conclusionThis study showed no effect of mannitol on I/R injury in patients undergoing deceased renal transplantation. Thus, we do not support the routinely use of mannitol to attenuate I/R injury.
