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

backgroundRenal artery stenosis is caused by a heterogeneous group of diseases, including atherosclerosis and fibromuscular dysplasia, which can be treated medically, via endovascular techniques, or by open revascularization; however, satisfactory and effective results are not always obtained. We aimed to assess the possibility of renal revascularization by a pedicled intestinal segment wrapping the kidney.

methodsFive dogs were operated on at three steps. At the first step, laparotomy was performed, and the right kidney was released. Subsequently, an 8-10 cm segment of jejunum was separated longitudinally, and mucosectomy was done. This intestinal patch wrapped up the kidney. After eight weeks, the kidney and the intestinal patch were analyzed, and the renal artery was ligated. After four weeks, the kidney and the intestinal patch were sent for pathological evaluation.

resultsAt the 12th week of evaluation, no evidence of abscess formation or collection was seen. All kidneys had a normal color, consistency, and size. All renal cells were alive, and neither atrophy nor necrosis was seen. Glomerulus and tubules were intact, and no inflammatory change was visible. Furthermore, thick wall vasculature was inspected in a fibromuscular tissue, rising from the intestinal flap toward the kidney. One of the dogs expired due to peritonitis and sepsis in the fifth week.

conclusionIn our study, indirect perfusion of the kidney by an intestinal patch was achieved successfully. This represents new hope in patients suffering from chronic renal failure who underwent former medical and surgical interventions with undesirable results.
