1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation is pivotal in the evaluation of kidney donors. There are various methods available for assessing GFR, but there has been a lack of consensus on the measurement of GFR and the frequency of renal evaluation after kidney donation. Our study aims to analyze the measured GFR (m-GFR) before and three months after kidney donation and note the compensatory abilities of the remnant kidney in live related kidney donors. Methods This prospective observational study was conducted at the Department of Nephrology, Dr. D. Y. Patil Medical College, Hospital & Research Centre, Pune, from April 2021 to December 2022. The study included 30 donors from both genders aged between 23 and 73 years. The measured GFR was calculated using a technetium-99m diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (Tc-99m DTPA) scan. We analyzed donor characteristics and various parameters that included demography, anthropometry, blood pressure, and serum creatinine and measured GFR (m-GFR) using a Tc-99m DTPA scan, which was compared before and three months after donor nephrectomy. Results Of the 30 donors, 25 (83.3%) were females and five (16.7%) were males. The mean age of donors was 49.23 ± 12.29 years. The mean body mass index (BMI) was noted to be 24.73 ± 5.58 kg/m
