Longitudinal follow-up on vascular morphology and function in children with kidney transplants.
Article in Acta paediatrica (Oslo, Norway : 1992), 2023. 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
aimOur aim was to evaluate cardiovascular risk profile in 42 children with kidney transplants (KT) at the Queen Silvia Children's Hospital, Gothenburg Sweden.
methodsForty-two children (7.1-18 years) with KT, time from transplantation 3.5 (0.9-13) years, were examined at inclusion and annually for three consecutive years. Eighteen matched controls were examined once. Cardiovascular phenotyping included ultra-high-frequency ultrasound (UHFUS), pulse wave velocity (PWV), and endothelial function.
resultsChildren with KT had higher body mass index (BMI) z-score and blood pressure (BP) z-score than healthy controls (BMI z-score: 0.4 ± 1.0 and - 0.2 ± 0.9, respectively, p = 0.02; SBP z-score: 0.5 ± 0.9 and - 0.8 ± 0.7; DBP z-score: 0.7 ± 0.7 and - 0.3 ± 0.5, respectively, p < 0.001). BP z-score decreased significantly over 3 years; other vascular markers remained unchanged. PWV and carotid intima thickness (IT) were higher in children with KT compared to healthy controls. Children with pre-emptive KT had lower radial IT and dorsal pedal media thickness (MT) compared to children with preceding dialysis.
conclusionChildren with KT show increased cardiovascular risk parameters, not increasing over time. Children on dialysis before KT have more pronounced vascular changes than those with pre-emptive KT, suggesting pre-emptive transplantation more beneficial for cardiovascular health.
