The effect of partial nephrectomy on blood pressure in patients with solitary kidney.
Article in World journal of urology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeTo determine the effect of partial nephrectomy (PN) in the solitary kidney on systolic and diastolic blood pressures (SBP and DBP, respectively), and use of antihypertensive medications.
methodsWe performed a retrospective cohort study of solitary kidney patients who underwent PN for kidney cancer from 1999-2015. Primary outcomes evaluated were blood pressure (BP) and antihypertensive medication changes from baseline up to 5 years postoperatively. Using a multivariable mixed-effects model to account for repeated measurements, we evaluated the effect of PN on the outcome measurements while controlling for baseline patient, pathologic, and perioperative characteristics.
results292 patients who underwent PN on solitary kidneys met inclusion criteria (median [range] age, 63 [24-84] years; 179 men [61%]). SBP decreased immediately postoperatively (- 1.7 mmHg [- 2.6, - 0.7], p < 0.001), and further decreased by 0.04 mmHg per year (p = 0.01) postoperatively, for a total change of - 1.9 [- 3.9, 0.2] mmHg at 5 years (p = 0.01). DBP decreased immediately postoperatively (- 2.2 mmHg [- 2.7, - 1.7], p < 0.001), and then rebounded by 0.37 mmHg per year (p = 0.003) postoperatively, for a total change of - 0.4 [- 1.5, 0.7] mmHg at 5 years (p = 0.003). Antihypertensive medication use increased at 5 years (0.35 more medications per patient, p < 0.001).
conclusionsOur results suggest a minimal change in BP after PN, although patients increased antihypertensive medication use. This data suggests damage to renal parenchyma or hilar nerves during PN did not significantly impact BP regulation in our cohort.
