Kidney transplantation for a transgender male.
Article in CEN case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The proportion of transgender people has increased over time, but few cases of transgender people undergoing kidney transplantation have been described. A 41-year-old transgender man (female-to-male) had chronic kidney disease caused by IgA nephropathy. He had received testosterone therapy and sex reassignment surgeries (chest masculinization surgery, metoidioplasty, scrotoplasty, and hysterectomy-ovariectomy) since he was 19 years due to gender incongruence. He underwent a preemptive living-donor kidney transplantation from his wife. His skeletal muscle mass was closer to that of a female than that of a male and suggested that eGFR should be calculated with the equation based on the gender assigned at birth (female) rather than the gender identity (male). Moreover, the recovery of kidney function due to successful kidney transplantation decreased serum gonadotropin levels, but normalization of his sex hormone profile was not achieved. Further accumulation of experience with kidney transplantation for transgender people is needed.
