A Novel Preservation Solution Containing Quercetin and Sucrose for Porcine Kidney Transplantation.
Article in Transplantation direct, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
In organ transplantation, the University of Wisconsin (UW) solution has been the gold standard for organ preservation. Quercetin (Que) has numerous antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, and sucrose (Suc) may be effective for cold storage (CS). This study aimed to investigate the in vitro protective effect of Que and Suc on cold injury to the kidney and to determine whether Que + Suc could improve ischemia-reperfusion injury during CS and hypothermic oxygenated perfusion (HOPE) in autologous transplantation models.
methodsBHK-21 cells were stored at 4°C for 3 days in UW solution for CS/machine perfusion (CS/MP-UW) with Que (33.1 μM, 3.3 μM, 0.33 μM) and Suc (0.1 M). In a porcine model of renal autologous transplantation, left kidney grafts were preserved under 3 conditions: group 1, CS preservation for 24 hours; group 2, CS preservation for 22 hours and HOPE with CS/MP-UW solution for 2 hours; and group 3, identical preservation as group 2, with Que and Suc added to the solution. Animals were euthanized on day 7 after autologous transplantation.
resultsAfter 3 days of CS preservation, the CS/MP-UW solution with Que (33.1 μM, 3.3 μM) and Suc showed significant cell protection against cold injury. In the porcine model of renal autologous transplantation, the last blood Cre level and the blood lipid hydroperoxide on posttransplantation day 2 were significantly different between group 1 and group 3. Moreover, the total endothelial, glomerular, tubular, interstitial (EGTI) histology score in the kidney tissue was also significantly different. Regarding the change in renal resistance in HOPE, the decrease observed in group 3 was significantly larger than that in group 2.
conclusionsOur results suggest that the addition of Que and Suc to a UW solution can improve kidney preservation and could potentially enhance the outcome of kidney transplantation.
