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
introductionAn increased midnight cortisol (MC) has been described in end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and type 1 diabetes (T1D). Lower circulating levels of the cytokine soluble tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-like weak inducer of apoptosis (sTWEAK) have been found in T1D and ESKD and associated with cardiovascular (CV) events in the latter. We aimed to study MC and sTWEAK in simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant (SPKT) recipients, and the association of these markers with CV risk factors and transplant outcomes.
methodsThis was a retrospective cohort study including subjects with T1D who received a first SPKT between 2008 and 2020. MC and sTWEAK at baseline were correlated with CV risk factors and evolution 1 year after SPKT.
resultsWe included 29 subjects (58.6% women, mean age 43.5 ± 7.5 years, diabetes duration 31.9 ± 9.4 years). Systolic blood pressure (SBP) increased directly with MC quartiles, despite similar hypertension prevalence (p < 0.05). At 1 year, antihypertensive treatment was deintensified in those in lower MC quartiles (p < 0.05). Diabetic neuropathy prevalence decreased progressively in higher cortisol quartiles (p for trend = 0.005). Low MC was associated with delayed kidney graft function (p for trend = 0.044), and high sTWEAK with kidney graft rejection (p for trend = 0.018). In multivariate analyses, MC (standardized-β 0.505, p = 0.004) and age (standardized-β - 0.460, p = 0.040) were independently correlated with SBP, and MC was independently associated with the presence of diabetic neuropathy (OR 0.633, 95% CI 0.425-0.944, p = 0.025), adjusted for confounders.
conclusionsIn this exploratory study, lower MC was associated with a lower baseline SBP, an improvement of antihypertensive treatment 1 year after transplant, and a higher diabetic neuropathy prevalence in SPKT recipients.
