Outcomes of Primary Simultaneous Pancreas-kidney Transplants by Induction Agent in the United States.
Article in Transplantation direct, 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
Long-term outcome data by induction type in simultaneous pancreas-kidney (SPK) is limited. Methods: Utilizing the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients, we examined all primary SPK transplants between 2000 and 2020, excluding crossmatch-positive recipients. We grouped recipients according to induction regimen into 3 groups: rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (r-ATG) (n = 5678), alemtuzumab (n = 1199), and interleukin-2 receptor antagonist (IL-2RA; n = 1593). We analyzed the 10-y recipient and composite (kidney and pancreas) graft survival using the Kaplan-Meier survival function. Cox-proportion hazard models were generated to examine the association between induction type, the 10-y recipient, and graft survival. Models were adjusted for recipient age, sex, ethnicity, HLA-mismatch, diabetes type, dialysis dependency, cold-ischemia time, local versus imported organs, panel reactive antibody, steroid maintenance, and Pancreas Donor Risk Index. Results: r-ATG was associated with the lowest 1-y kidney and pancreas rejection rates compared with other agents ( Conclusions: r-ATG use was associated with the lowest SPK rejection rates. Compared with r-ATG, alemtuzumab but not IL-2RA was associated with worse long-term death-censored SPK graft outcome. Our analysis supports the common use of r-ATG for induction in US primary SPK recipients.
