Assessing the Outcome of Adult Kidney Transplantation from a Deceased Expanded Criteria Donor: A Descriptive Study.
Article in Cureus, 2020. 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
Background End-stage renal disease (ESRD) creates a great burden on the quality of life. Patients after kidney transplantation have been reported to have a greater quality of life and better outcomes health outcomes. Therefore, it is important to optimize the best method of following well-constructed criteria such as the expanded criteria donor (ECD) to reduce the chances of rejection rate and deaths post-transplantation particularly in elderly patients in conjunction with the kidney profile donor index (KDPI). Methods This is a retrospective descriptive study of all patients who received kidney transplantation from a deceased donor from the ECD as well as ECD with donation after cardiac death (DCD) at St. Joseph Health Care Hospital over a 24 month time period from January 2017 to January 2019. All adult recipients from standard criteria donor (SCD) and living donors were excluded from the study. Results The study included 60 patients with 36 (60%) from the ECD and 24 (40%) were from the ECD/DCD group. The most common cause of ESRD among recipients was diabetes mellitus (DM) involving 23 (38.3%) of the patients. The creatinine outcome was the highest in the ECD/DCD group at one month (211 ± 71) and the lowest creatinine recorded was also in the ECD/DCD at 12 months (160 ± 78). Lastly, only four patients died in 12 months and only six recipients reported graft loss over 12 months. Conclusion Descriptive data of the included ECD/DCD showed increase trend in survivability of the recipients when used among the elderly, giving us more insight on the benefits of ECD/DCD transplantation.
