Microscopic Hematuria at Kidney Donor Screening and Post-Donation Kidney Outcomes.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Although guidelines recommend a kidney biopsy in prospective living kidney donors with unexplained microscopic hematuria, individuals with mild hematuria are commonly allowed to donate without a biopsy. However, the prognostic implications of pre-donation hematuria are unclear. We investigated whether pre-donation microscopic hematuria is associated with changes in post-donation eGFR, proteinuria, or blood pressure. We included 701 living kidney donors with two pre-donation urinalyses and post-donation annual evaluations of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), protein/creatinine ratio (PCR), and systolic blood pressure (SBP). The association between pre-donation microscopic hematuria and outcomes was assessed using generalized linear mixed models. The median [interquartile range] follow-up was 5 (2-8) years. Eighty-eight donors had pre-donation microscopic hematuria. There were no significant associations between microscopic hematuria at screening and the course of eGFR (0.44 mL/min/1.73 m
