Tumor Recurrence and Graft Survival in Renal Transplant Recipients with a History of Pretransplant Malignancy: A Matched Pair Analysis.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Organ scarcity demands critical decision-making regarding eligible transplant candidates and graft allocation to ensure best benefit from renal transplantation (RTx). Among the controversial relative contraindications is a history of pretransplant malignancy (PTM). While oncological outcomes of PTM-RTx recipients are well described, data on graft-specific outcome are scarce. A retrospective double case control matched pair analysis (60 months follow-up) was carried out and RTx-recipients were stratified for history of PTM. First, PTM-RTx recipients were matched according to age, sex and duration of immunosuppressive therapy. Next, PTM-RTx recipients were matched 1:1 for age, sex and cause of end-stage renal disease. Five-year patient and graft survival as well as oncological outcomes were analyzed. A total of 65 PTM-RTx recipients were identified. Post-RTx recurrence rate was 5%, while 20% developed second de novo malignancy, comparable to 14% in the control group. PTM-RTx recipients had a noticeable lower five-year death-censored as well as overall graft survival and Cox proportional hazard modeling showed a correlation between PTM and inferior graft survival. Although underlying reasons remain not fully understood, this study is the first to show inferior graft survival in PTM-RTx recipients and advocates necessity to focus on more meticulous graft monitoring in PTM recipients in addition to heightened surveillance for cancer recurrence.
