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: Late-onset acute cellular rejection (LACR) is a special type of acute rejection (AR) only rarely studied after pediatric liver transplantation (pLT). Our study aimed to explore the influencing factors of LACR after pLT and establish a nomogram to provide an individualized prediction of LACR after pLT. Materials and Methods: Data from 640 children who underwent pLT at Tianjin First Central Hospital from January 2016 to December 2019 were collected as part of this retrospective study. The nomogram was then established through the results of the multivariable analysis. Results: Forty-one patients experienced LACR > 1 ≤ 2 years after pLT. Cold ischemia time, donor-specific antibodies (DSAs), and tacrolimus concentration were independent influencing factors, and a nomogram was established with an AUC value of 0.834 (95% confidence interval, 0.755-0.912). Ten-fold cross-validation showed that the accuracy of the nomogram was about 76%. Sixty-three patients experienced LACR > 2 years after pLT. Child-Pugh grade, cold ischemic time, DSAs, early acute cellular rejection, and tacrolimus concentration were independent influencing factors, and a nomogram was established with an AUC value of 0.827 (95% confidence interval, 0.774-0.881). Ten-fold cross-validation showed that the accuracy of the nomogram was about 80.9%. Conclusion: We established nomograms to predict the incidence of LACR > 1 ≤ 2 and > 2 years after pLT, respectively. The verification results showed that nomograms had good accuracy and clinical practicability.
