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

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathway is a multimodal perioperative care pathway designed to achieve early recovery after surgery. ERAS protocols have not yet been well recognized in kidney transplantation. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of ERAS pathway on early recovery and short-term clinical outcomes of kidney transplant. Methods: This is a single-center retrospective analysis comparing the outcomes of 20 adult kidney transplant recipients subjected to ERAS pathway with 20 adult recipients operated before ERAS with traditional standard of care. Results: There were no significant differences between both groups regarding age, gender, race, dialysis status, living donor percentage, cold ischemia time, and warm ischemia time. Median hospital stay for ERAS patients was 2 d. Overall median pain scores were significantly lower in the ERAS group versus non-ERAS group (morning after surgery pain score 2 versus 5; peak pain score 4.5 versus 10; lowest pain score 0 versus 2; Conclusions: Implementation of ERAS pathway in kidney transplantation is feasible. Using ERAS is associated with less pain, earlier ambulation and advancement of oral nutrition, and short hospital stay.
