Vascular calcification progression and its association with mineral and bone disorder in kidney transplant recipients.
Article in Renal failure, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe assessment and prevention of vascular calcification (VC) in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) have not been systematically studied. We aimed to evaluate VC change one year after kidney transplantation (KT) and identify their influencing factors.
methods95 KTRs (68 males; ages 40.2 ± 10.8 years) were followed one year after KT. Changes in bone mineral density (BMD) and bone metabolism biomarkers were assessed. Coronary artery calcification (CAC) and thoracic aortic calcification (TAC) were measured using 192-slice third-generation dual-source CT. The relationship between bone metabolism indicators and VC and the factors influencing VC were analyzed.
resultsPostoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate was 79.96 ± 24.18 mL/min*1.73 m
conclusionsMineral and bone disorders persisted, and VC progressed after KT, showing a close relationship.
