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

Background Accurate estimation of the donor's glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is crucial for not only ensuring the medical appropriateness of the donor but also for the prediction of future allograft performance. The aim of this study was to compare the GFR estimation formulas and 24-hour urine creatinine clearance with diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) renal scan GFR. Methods This cross-sectional study was done at the Department of Nephro Urology Dialysis & Renal Transplantation, Bahawal Victoria Hospital, Quaid e Azam Medical College, Bahawalpur, Pakistan from September 2018 to September 2021. A total of 92 potential healthy live-related kidney donors of both genders, aged 18 to 60 years having body mass index below 35 kg/m
