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

objectiveTo study the characteristics and outcomes of a cohort of kidney transplant recipients who required high-acuity care after transplant surgery. PATIENTS AND

methodsAll adult (aged ≥18 years) solitary kidney transplant recipients from January 1, 2007, through December 31, 2016, were screened and those who required high-acuity care within the same hospitalization were enrolled. Patient demographic and clinical data were collected from the departmental database and electronic DataMart.

resultsOf 1525 patients, 266 (17.4%) required high-acuity care after the kidney transplant operation: 166 (62.4%) directly from the operating room and 100 (37.6%) after an interval during the same hospitalization. Overall, 2 main indications were hypotension (n=87; 32.7%) and cardiac rhythm disturbances (n=83; 31.2%). Recipients in the direct admission group had higher medium body mass index (31.0 [interquartile range, 26.6-36.0] vs 28.0 [interquartile range, 24.3-32.4] kg/m

conclusionIn contemporary practice, patients with higher body mass index are more likely to require high-acuity care immediately after kidney transplant surgery. The most common reasons are hypotension and cardiac rhythm disorders. The overall intensive care unit mortality rate of these patients is low. However, these patients are at risk for graft loss and death in the long term compared with patients who do not require intensive care unit care after transplant surgery.
