Urinary Tract Infections in Kidney Transplant Recipients-Is There a Need for Antibiotic Stewardship?
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. It is linked to trial NCT06825117 (Impact of Probiotic Supplementation on Urinary Tract Infections and Clinically Relevant Outcomes of Kidney Transplant Recipients), which is not on this map. Cited by 10 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.

Abstract
(1) Background: Urinary tract infections (UTI) are the most common infections after kidney transplantation. Given the risk of urosepsis and the potential threat to the graft, the threshold for treating UTI and asymptomatic bacteriuria with broad spectrum antibiotics is low. Historically fluoroquinolones were prescription favorites for patients that underwent kidney transplantation (KT). After the recent recommendation to avoid them in these patients, however, alternative treatment strategies need to be investigated (2) Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the charts of 207 consecutive adult kidney transplantations that were performed at the department of General, Visceral and Transplantation Surgery of the University Hospital of Tuebingen between January 2015 and August 2020. All charts were screened for the diagnosis and treatment of asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) and urinary tract infections (UTI) and the patients' clinical characteristics and outcomes were evaluated. (3) Results: Of the 207 patients, 68 patients suffered from urinary tract infections. Patients who developed UTI had worse graft function at discharge (
