[Pattern of biochemical markers of mineral and bone disorders in kidney transplant recipients: real-world data].
Article in Problemy endokrinologii, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThere is a lack of studies providing comprehensive data on the prevalence of mineral and bone disorders (MBD) laboratory abnormalities after kidney transplantation in Russia.
aimto obtain real-world data on the prevalence of the main mineral abnormalities among kidney transplant recipients and to revise their concomitant MBD therapy.
methodThis cross-sectional study included 236 patients with successful kidney transplantation. Their serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), total calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels were measured.
resultsOnly 6.2% of our cohort had all laboratory parameters within the target range, whereas persistent HPT along with hypercalcemia was noted in almost one third of the patients (31%). Normal iPTH levels were observed in 13% cases; 84% of the patients had hyperparathyroidism. The fraction of patients with target iPTH did not differ between the groups with normal and decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (p=0.118). Hypercalcemia was observed in 29% cases. The serum P level varied significantly in groups with different eGFR (p<0.0001), increasing with declining graft function. Furthermore, 40.7% of patients had ALP above the target range. While 123 patients received active vitamin D (alfacalcidol), 33 received monotherapy with inactive vitamin D (cholecalciferol). The control group consisted of 57 medication-naïve patients. The serum total Ca level varied significantly between the groups (p=0.0006), being higher in patients supplemented with cholecalciferol. The fraction of patients with normocalcemia was lowest in the cholecalciferol group (chi-square, р=0.0018).
conclusionThe prevalence of biochemical abnormalities after kidney transplantation is high. Alfacalcidol usage may be safer than using cholecalciferol to prevent hypercalcemia development.
