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

backgroundAccurate prediction of renal function following kidney donation and careful selection of living donors are essential for living-kidney donation programs. We aimed to develop a prediction model for post-donation renal function following living kidney donation using machine learning.

methodsThis retrospective cohort study was conducted with 823 living kidney donors between 2009 and 2020. The dataset was randomly split into training (80%) and test sets (20%). The main outcome was the post-donation estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 12 months after nephrectomy. We compared the performance of machine learning techniques, traditional regression models, and models from previous studies. The best-performing model was selected based on the mean absolute error (MAE) and root mean square error (RMSE).

resultsThe mean age of the participants was 45.2 ± 12.3 years, and 48.4% were males. The mean pre-donation and post-donation eGFRs were 101.3 ± 13.0 and 68.8 ± 12.7 mL/min/1.73 m

conclusionsThe prediction model using XGBoost accurately predicted the post-donation eGFR after living kidney donation. This model can be applied in clinical practice using KDNI, the developed web application.
