Donor-Derived Transmission of Scedosporiosis in Kidney Transplant Recipients from a Systemic lupus erythematosus donor.
Article in Current medical science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Donor-derived infection (DDI) associated with Scedosporium spp is extremely rare, and results in a very poor prognosis. The present study reports a probable DDI due to Scedosporium boydii (S. boydii) from a donor with neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus. Two recipients developed Scedosporiosis after kidney transplantation from the same donor. Recipient 1 died of central nervous system infection due to S. boydii based on the clinical presentations, and the positive metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) and culture results for the cerebrospinal fluid. The other recipient with urinary tract obstruction due to S. boydii, which was identified through the positive culture and mNGS results of the removed stents, was successfully treated by stent replacement and voriconazole administration. Undiagnosed disseminated donor infection and the transmission of S. boydii should be given attention, particularly when the donor and recipients have primary immunodeficiency disease. The screening of donors and recipients for S. boydii using mNGS may be helpful in guiding antifungal prophylaxis and treatment recipients, due to its higher sensitivity and shorter diagnostic time relative to other traditional techniques.
