Youngest en-bloc kidney transplant recipient in India: defying the barriers and challenges with teamwork.
Article in BMJ 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
We received a call from a transplant coordinator about the availability of a consented deceased donor. En-bloc kidneys with the aorta and IVC (inferior vena cava) were harvested from a toddler weighing 8 kg. The recipient was of early childhood weighing 14 kg who had been on haemodialysis for the last 3 years for end-stage kidney disease. He received anti-thymocyte globulin as an induction immunosuppressant. The kidneys were transplanted en bloc in the right lower quadrant retroperitoneal region; an anastomosis was performed to the recipient's aorta and IVC, and two separate neocystoureterostomies were created. His serum creatinine reached 0.5 mg/dL on the seventh postoperative day, following a few days of delayed graft function. In this study, we describe the surgical and non-surgical challenges that we faced while performing en-bloc kidney transplant to the youngest recipient and how a multidisciplinary team approach helped us overcome them.
