Preoperative versus Postoperative Compensation of the Contralateral Normal Kidney in Patients Treated with Radical Nephrectomy for Renal Cell Carcinoma.
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.
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
backgroundWe sought to identify the factors affecting renal compensatory processes that occur preoperatively as well as postoperatively in patients treated with radical nephrectomy (RNx) for renal cell carcinoma (RCC).
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed the records of 906 patients treated with RNx for RCC. We defined the early compensatory process (process 1) as compensatory adaptation of the contralateral normal kidney (CNK) before RNx. We defined the late compensatory process (process 2) as compensatory adaptation of the CNK after RNx. Total compensation was defined as the combination of these two processes. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to identify significant factors associated with processes 1, 2 and total compensation.
resultsMean preoperative, 1-week, and 5-year postoperative estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR) were 84.5, 57.6 and 63.7 mL/min/1.73 m
conclusionsDifferent factors affected each compensatory process. Process 1 made a greater contribution to the entire renal compensatory process than process 2.
