Induction Therapy and Outcomes following Kidney Transplantation in Recipients of Previous Heart or Liver Transplants.
Article in Indian journal of nephrology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Optimal induction for kidney transplantation in patients with previous nonrenal organ transplantation is unclear. We aimed to evaluate the impact of induction therapy on the outcomes following kidney transplantation in patients who underwent prior heart or liver transplantation. Methods: Using the UNOS database, patients who underwent isolated heart or liver transplant from 2000 to 2016 followed by subsequent kidney transplant and maintained on calcineurin inhibitor (CNI)/mycophenolic acid (MPA) regimen were identified and stratified into three groups according to the induction used for kidney transplant: No induction, induction with interleukin-2 receptor antibody (IL-2RA), or T-cell depleting induction with Thymoglobulin. The outcomes were compared between no induction vs. IL-2RA and T-cell depleting induction, and IL-2RA vs. T-cell depleting induction. Results: Adjusted risk for delayed graft function was significantly higher for T-cell depleting vs. no induction (OR 4.56, 95% CI 1.14-18.3, Conclusions: The use of induction was not associated with graft or patient survival benefits for kidney transplantation in patients who had prior heart or liver transplants and maintained on CNI and MPA regimen.
