Kidney Transplantation in Patients With the History of SARS-CoV-2 Infection.
Article in Transplantation proceedings, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe aim of this study is to present the experience and results of kidney transplantation in patients with the history of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed waitlisted patients who had a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection and offered a kidney transplant between March 2020 and December 2021.
resultsOf the 97 waitlisted potential kidney transplant recipients who were offered a kidney, 13 (13.4%) had a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection. All patients were tested negative for SARS-CoV-2 at the time of the kidney offer. Successful transplantation was performed in 9 patients (5 male; average age was 40.8 years), with the average time between SARS-CoV-2 infection and transplantation of 8 months. Four of 13 patients with a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection were finally not transplanted, with 2 patients not eligible for transplantation due to significant post-COVID findings in routine pretransplant chest CT scans, and 2 patients were not transplanted because of poor donor organ quality.
conclusionsKidney transplantation after SARS-CoV-2 infection is possible in a setting of full recovery from acute infection, negative PCR test, and no pneumonic infiltrates on chest CT scan. A growing number of waitlisted patients with a history of SARS-CoV-2 infection imposes the need for decision-making tools and guidelines for risk/benefit assessment in these patients.
